Happy Birthday, Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz!
Today (October 31st, 2009), Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz of the Beastie Boys (my third-favourite band of all time) turns forty-three years old. Forty-three strikes me as a creepily old age for Ad-Rock to be; Ad-Rock, you don't look a day over thirty-seven!
Ad-Rock is one of my favourite people ever to have been born on this planet. Ad-Rock's forty-three years ago birth has greatly benefited my life over the years. Ad-Rock's spirit animal is a black labrador puppy. If I could pick one dude from all recorded history to be my fraternal twin brother, it would be Ad-Rock. Ad-Rock is my favourite Beastie Boy. I relate to Ad-Rock a ton. Here are some reasons why:
1. "So what if I'm a ham and cheese on rye? I gots to do my thing and that's no lie."
2. "I'm all fucked up and I wanna so I'm gonna."
3. I'm a water sign.
4. I'm a wiry, dynamic brunet(te).
5. "The gift of gab is the gift that I have."
6. "I'm Adam and I'm adamant about living large" (only in my case, I'm "Laura". This is an opinion I also share with Adam "MCA" Yauch. They are both adamant about this.)
7. One of Ad-Rock's many "rapping names" is "The Kid." I too am The Kid! When people call me Kid (which happens a lot, because I project really intense "Call me Kid!" vibes), I feel like I am "seen." Once, I was in Liverpool, and a creepy old man said "Oy! Kid! Can I 'ave a fag, then?" and I was like "Oh my God! You get me!" So there's an anecdote from my life that has very little to do with Adam "Ad-Rock" Horovitz.
In conclusion: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ADAM "AD-ROCK" HOROVITZ! My birthday present to you is that I will be your Personal Assistant if you want me to. Also, Happy Birthday to ALL THE HALLOWE'EN SCORPIOS out there! Congratulations on having a really killer birthday. You are wonderful, exciting, and complex human beings.
Seen below is a clip of Ad-Rock being awesome, ADD-charming and a feminist at the 1999 MTV Video Awards. He is wearing a basset hound t-shirt and is at his all-time cutest. This is my favourite video on all YouTube.
