I’m sad.

We love Nao. And her Star Wars hat.

Download The Flying Lizards – Move On Up (Curtis Mayfield Cover)

Searching for “move on up” in google also leads me here. Move-on-up is a social networking site for politically conservative African-Americans.

This “Move On Up” idea is pretty compelling because it’s a phrase that continues to circulate in different ways.
