Lost Boys soundtrack
I saw Lost Boys with my friends the summer between middle school and high school (1987). It was one of the last carefree summers I remember.
It's a little dated, but I still play it.

PVC—
What about the often overlooked boysenberry?
And the tart lingonberry?

Abbie'sDad—
That was awesome.

Apparently, Parker Lewis can lose.

When I was in college and low on funds, my roommate and I had Otis, our janitor who had a metal plate in his skull from a beatdown, run to the Piggly Wiggly with us to get a sampler pack of Durham's finest 40ouncers. We started out with the Colt .45, then then moved to OE800. At this point we figured we would no…

JVS—
I love to tap into a nice fresh box.
Sometimes I let the sweet liquid pour out of the tight little nozzle all over my parched lips.

Pilgrim, I have nothing against a luscious brown madeira !
I will admit to a preference for a fizzy blonde Gewurtz, though.

Oenophilia
I had to register as an oenophile when I moved to Tennessee.
Went from door to door in my neighborhood , driving my white van with the seascape on the side (and the wine fridge inside), telling the new neighbors about my lust for young, juicy zinfandels and sweaty bottles of fruity German reislings.

Merry Kwanzaa to you, Robuttnik.

Heironymus Bosch and "Night on Bald Mountain"

"Do you want to see something REALLY scary?"
"Nightmare at 20,000 Feet" scared ths shit out of me when I was 10 or 11. Even now, I cautiously check for gremlins on the wings of planes when I'm flying.

"Cowboy in Sweden" has some great tracks… "Leather and Lace" , "The Night Before", "Hey Cowboy", "No Train To Stockholm".
If you read the liner notes, it sounds like it could be pretty cheesy. But it's not.

Perfectly Cromulent-
I'm a medical oncologist at an academic hospital.
I treat multiple patients with testicular cancer.
Performing a "nad-ectomy" will remove the primary tumor and is standardly done. However, if you have tumor in the lungs/ lymph nodes/ brain/ liver…..removing the nut is hardly accomplishing anything.

Testicular cancer is cured with chemotherapy, even in metastatic disease. 4 cycles of bleomycin + etoposide + cisplatin = cure in the vast majority of patients. Lance Armstrong, for instance.
Orchiectomy cures early stage disease, chemo cures everything else.

Testicular cancer is actually cured >90% of the time.
So if you would like someone to die of cancer AIDS, choose another cancer.
You could ask Patrick Swayze about the miserable fucking death a pancreatic cancer patient awaits, for a start.

Monty Python & the Holy Grail
I consider this the funniest movie I have ever seen. I must have watched it nearly 200 times, and can remember all the lines (as any red blooded all American geek should).

Kellgot—
My favorite scene is Deadwood was the one in Season 2 where Al meets up with a morose, whiny Merrick after his printing press was detroyed. Al slaps Merrick and says:
"Pain, or damage, don't end the world. Or despair. Or fuckin' beatins. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you've got more punishment in…

Clueless—
I'm in the middle of Season 2 right now. It's entertaining and a little racy, but nothing you are going to want to purchase to hand down to your grandkids. It's not in the same league as The Wire or Deadwood, for instance.
For saucy revisionist drama, I thought HBO's Rome was better than the Tudors. But the…
