I just imagined my whole life that anytime you cross the street in Manhattan in 1970,"Everybody's Talkin" is playing in the background.

That's a nice, crisp bounce pass!

When I was really little, I remember asking my mom to buy me a behind-the-scenes magazine special on the making of Temple of Doom being sold the supermarket. This was prior to actually being allowed to see the movie, but I read that thing over and over again—and amazingly while I can't remember half of what I learned

Wasn't he crucified in Cheech and Chong's Nice Dreams?

These tacos are so craggy and pock-marked, yet so delicious! ¡Todo está muy sabroso!

Wah-Wah guitar effect pedal sales are way down…

The late 80s into the early 90s was the golden age of big budget R-rated action blockbusters.

Today we celebrate…. our (Thanksgiving/Canada Day/Tet/Boxing Day/Rosh Hashanah/Earth Day/Talk Like a Pirate Day/Casimir Pulaski Day/Grandparent's Day/Administrative Professional's Day)

I just watched it and it's kind of this sad bittersweet look at what happened when Joe Strummer tried to keep the band going after Combat Rock with a bunch of new members and how Cut The Crap turned out so crappy and Mick Jones was able to adapt to the

My grandpa started working for Louisiana Pacific at a sawmill while still in high school in the late 1930s and worked his way up to head financial Controller and corporate management with no college education whatsoever by the 1960s. I think he had a lot of friends at the company who moved up similarly—it wasn't

My dad was rocking the Fu-Manchu/Doobie Brothers mustache look into the early 80s as evidenced by my family photos from when I was a baby/toddler. By the mid-80s he trimmed it down, but he never lost the mustache.

Ken Cosgrove is the god of hell fire and he wants to bring you…FIRE!

Fuckin' limeys.
