Resurrection is fun. It's usually better the second time around because we recognized how much (dead item) was missed, and can fully appreciate it. However high it reaches on the fun scale though, it never lasts as long. Why? Because after all is said and done it's old news.
I'm talking of course of Nintendo. And anthrax. And The Police (note the caps... I'm talking about the band)
This week I played Super Mario Brother's 3 for the first time in a while, anthrax is back in headlines, and The Police just wrapped up their reunion tour. Yes I loved the nostalgia that came with dancing palm trees and Bowzer. Yes I love a reincarnated bio-chemical terrorism story as much as the next girl, and no I can't get enough of teacher/student statutory rape, encapsulated in a song a beautiful song. But, I still had to blow inside the Nintendo to get it started, anthrax didn't actually kill anyone this time (boringgg), and The Police: you guys are just old.
So... for now I'll just stick with the new stuff, wait the appropriate amount of time for jokes about them to be funny again rolls around, and appreciate anthrax for the non-threat it ever was, and ever will be.
