Just a few years later we here were feeling the malaise of the G.H.W. Bush recession, and we went from doldrums to enthusiasm in what seemed like a very short time once that recession went away. Starting a small press usually means that you can get a loan from a bank, and that doesn't happen in shitty economies.

But if you're there in '90, I think you were seeing a different Spain than you would have found in '87 or '88- wen the film is set- only a year or two removed from Spain joining the EEC, still going through growing pains.

"So when I saw Barcelona by Whit Stillman, and the way the Americans- particularly Chris Eigmann in uniform just don't get it - well it was illustrative and informative and rang true. A culture clash. Naive American optimism that might makes right, versus a certain strain of doomy and world-weary realism verging on…

Or maybe Cruz was overpriced for the production.

Occam (or Ockham, if you prefer) you are not. How many conspiracy theories are you in to?

And while I'm still here, why do you think they named it ADULT Swim?

You do know that generations, unless hit with wars or some other strife, run for almost two decades, right? The Baby Boom lasted from '46-'64, Gen X from '65 to '83 or '84, when birth rates rose above the 1941 mark again. Some of you Milllenials have Xers as parents, but graduated from high school a year or two…

"Adult Swim was made by Gen Xers for Millennials. "

That line made me think, 'Holy cross-generational cultural appropriation!'

The guy above (I assume you're referring to the Raw Power album cover) was spray-painting himself a copper color before shows.

Yeah, 1999 is sort of Prince's Off the Wall, while Purple Rain is his Thriller. I like 1999 and Off the Wall much more than I like Purple Rain and Thriller, because the latter albums have always left me feeling as if they were the products of market research and triangulation- inorganic, you might say.

She simply mistook woven cribs for picky-nic baskets.

But Easter isn't far off- March 27 this year- and this movie will run in smaller auditoriums in suburban multiplexes at least through the following week.

No, don't pull it out! That's the "other stuff" that caused you that blockage in the past!

Nah, the effects of The Preppy Handbook didn't start to kick in until 1982, and still weren't prevalent for a few more years.

But the phrase didn't originate with OWS. It had originated a few years earlier when the stats showed that the top 1% of people in the US controlled over 50% of the nation's wealth. Not all of those in the top 1% need be billionaires, but a fuckload of them are.

Murray, in that, had all the charm and personality of a corrugated cardboard box that's been left outside during a heavy rain shower.
