Code Kansas

In case you don’t ever read my twitter stuff and I haven’t posted it enough here, I think one of the funniest movies I have ever seen is Black Dynamite.

In the warehouseWithout spoiling things, the plot is very convoluted, and at one point the heroes of the story find themselves in a waffle house one morning after a long night of fighting bad guys and they are trying to figure out what an agent meant by “Operation Code Kansas” (said agent blacked out before they could question him).

Through a twisted trail of logic they finally reach an epiphany:

…As you all know, zodialogical astronomy
was created by the Greeks in…?

[All at once:] 785 BC!

785 is the area code for Topeka…
oh, my god!

785 is the area code for Topeka, Kansas!

[Everyone:] “Code Kansas”!

Okay, if this is too confusing and I’ve lost you, you gotta watch the movie and it will be clear. My point is this is the moment that a room full of people were suddenly realizing what was going on and rather excited about it.

This was how I felt about 3:56 this morning. I didn’t get up to write about it at the time, but yeah, it was kinda cool. Now I need to figure out what it all means.

Oh, by the way, my bird wasn’t there this morning. I hope they found a mate and were just too pooped to sing at 3 AM.
