oh, what a guy, that Gaston...

So, I'm just sitting at my desk, right?... checking emails, listening to npr, picking at something stuck in my teeth with my tongue, when all of a sudden, I say to myself, "the wheels are always turning..."
Meaning, I'm always thinking... duh.

Now, don't ask me why I said that to myself... maybe I was giving myself a pep talk, who knows...
That doesn't matter, it's besides the point.
What I want to know is, who can tell me where I got that from... "the wheels are turning?"

Give up?
Beauty and the Beast!!!
Don't you remember when Gaston is plotting something crazy in the pub, and he sings, "the wheels in my head have be turning..."
and his sidekick (Apu, is it... or is that the monkey from Aladdin?) says, "a horrible passtime..."
Gaston continues, "I know..."

You remember that?
Oh, that Gaston...
I liked that guy.
If you think of it, he wasn't really a bad person.
A little obsessed with Belle, but, who wouldn't be?
I mean, come on... her name means Beauty!!!
Who wouldn't be captivated by her?!?!
I know he set out to kill the Beast and all, but it's kinda understandable... the Beast is a big and hairy and unhuman (maybe, even a little unanimal, right Ched?).
Gaston didn't know that it was a bratty prince who got turned into a lion-y creature.
Shoot, I'd probably be cheering Gaston on- "Kill the Beast. Kill the Beast..."
hahaha... that kinda sounds Lord of the Flies-ish, doesn't it?
Sucks to as-mar.
