Myspace Time Capsule

I'm on antibiotics currently (nothing serious) and haven't really written much this week. So I figured this was the perfect opportunity to do another look back to my blog on Myspace from way back when. Most of it was mindless insanity (the best kind of insanity) and the occasional story. Pretty much it was just read by a few friends and family. Yes that is my justification for reprinting material.

Today's entry comes from May 14, 2007, and since my mood was 'sick' it seemed appropriate.

Beauty and the Beast

Earlier today I was at work. Random ideas colliding into random trains of thought brought to mind a question.

In the disney cartoon, Beauty and the Beast, the annoying tea cup Chip behaved as a clueless child.
In one moment his mother the tea pot sings "there maybe something there that wasn't there before" refering to the blossoming love between monster and girl. Chip's response is to question and say "What's there momma?" to which she smiles and says "shh, I'll tell you when you're older."

So what's my point?

Simply this; Chip had to have been born after they were already transformed into househould objects. First there's the time frame. Chip is about 8 years old, yet Lumiere clearly sings in Be Our Guest "Ten years we've been rusting"
But I can over look that for the moment, purely because the rest of them don't seem to age properly under the curse.

What cannot be overlooked is Chip's innocence. If he was transformed with the rest of them at a young age, even if his body didn't age, his mind would have. As was so clearly demonstrated almost 30 years ago by V.C. Andrews in her Flowers in the Attic series.
For sure there is no way, that while in an eight year old body, that the 18 year old kid would have no concept of love. Especially when you take into accounting the peep show that Lumiere and the french tart of a feather duster were always putting on display.

So even if all this is true, what difference does it make?
Well I can accept the curse. I can accept them all as various utensils and kitchen apparatus. What I cannot accept is how a teapot could, 1. get knocked up, and 2. deliver a child.

Maybe someone can shed some light on it. I just feel lied to.

No one ever did answer this question. A few people called me crazy. A couple asked me if I come up with this stuff just to annoy them. But not one legitimate answer.
