i'm so happy, i'm just burnin'
The last few days (and probably the next few) have been like those feel-good 80's teen movies.
You know the ones I'm talking about..."hey guys, we can make this work if we all just pitch in and fix up this old abandoned warehouse!" Then there's a musical montage to Neutron Dance or something, and everyone looks all cute while they make funny mistakes and move in fast motion.
Then at the end the warehouse is all cleaned up and everyone is standing in a big group wiping their brows and saying, "We did it, guys!"
We're not quite to the brow wiping part...but it's getting pretty close. The place looks better every day and it just about looks like a place where we can get some serious work done.

My question..why was it always a warehouse?

Yipes!
I just remembered, back when I first met D I had this crazy-ass dream that he was living in a warehouse, sleeping on this tiny mattress. Up on the ceiling above his head he had painted this trippy swirly abstract painting...

Why a warehouse? You fool! The warehouse is the symbol of infinite possibilities. Just a big rectangular room. Plus it's cheap to film a teen movie scene in a warehouse.

I'm pretty sure answer number two is the truth, as for symbolism....PLEASE! it was the eighties.

Plus a warehouse will have the prerequisite piles of cardboard boxes to get knocked over during the inevitable "Geek finds inner courage and stands up to the bully after learning Ding Do Wah from the old chinese janitor" fight scene.
