Prince reference in Saturday Night Live opening credits

I was watching Saturday Night Live yesterday when something caught my eye. In the opening credits this season they yuck it up at what appears to be a rooftop party. After they show Bill Hader's mug and name they cut to a dj spinning a record on the turntable. It looks like it's Prince's 1999. I recognized the big eyeball he put on the record label. Thank you High Definition! I tried to find the opening sequence on the web, but no luck.

Anyway... useless Prince trivia.

Anybody else ever notice this?

I just remember that Lorenzo Lamas's "Chilly D" character mentioned Prince in the breakdancing non-cult, non-classic, non hit movie, Body Rock.

Other than that,
I'm a blank slate.

Yea a lot of people point that out. That avatar is many years old, going back to the launch of The Org 2.0. Eventually animated ones were not allowed, and I guess they never bothered to do anything about avatars that were already in the system. What's interesting is that I use the Safari browser and for some reason it only displays one frame, so I can't even enjoy my own moving avatar unless if I use another browser. But I have no need to be staring at it all day, so all is well.
