Yes, Joss Whedon, I have bought your Internet TV thingy.

I now have $1.04 in my iTunes account, thanks to Joss Whedon. I hope your hard work is worth $3.99 of my hard-earned (by living for 30 years so my parents would give me an iTunes gift card for my birthday) money, Mr. Whedon.

(I’m kidding. It’s totally worth $3.99, even if it’s only a tenth as good as Firefly.)

Finding the right key to play David Bowie’s “Heroes” in…and then standing in your living room with an unplugged electric guitar at eight in the morning, pretending you’re playing the Reading Festival or Lollapalooza or something like that, shrieking “And we can be HEROOOOOES if just for one day!” at full volume as you pound away at the half-tuned strings.

Bonus quiz: how many of the 80s video icons in the steam tunnels can you name? I got Michael Jackson in “Thriller” of course, the dude from Alphaville’s “Forever Young”, and of course the Art of Noise (with the little girl dressed like a hooker). I think the general is from the “99 Luftballoons” video, but I can’t be sure. And I think I saw Simon LeBon.
