Okay then: "Wings stars Steven Weber and Tim Daly"—although I feel pretty certain they both fall into the "hero in a SyFy original" category and your post does little to disprove that.

Do you mean Lydia Lunch…or Lene Lovich (who I almost included as an original pioneer of the "hiccup as New Wave Affectation" alongside Ric Ocasek)? I suppose a complete list would also include Nina Hagen and Toni Basil, too.

In the age of internet porn, what exactly is the market for "unrated" DVD's of crap comedies that promise a glimpse of tit here and there? At the very least, you'd think 'Girls Gone Wild' would have made these things obsolete.

Vis-a-vis Little Nell—I don't think there would have been any difficulty marketing an album of hers at that time. Remember, shrill, hiccuppy female vocalists were all the rage in New Wave (see also Dale Bozzio, Altered Images and even Cyndi Lauper—though she was a cut above the norm).

'Haystacks at the End of Summer, Morning Effect' was really the point where Monet should have quit—after that it all gets kind of repetitive.

Linda Blair was in 'Zapped 2'?

That goes along with my earlier proposal of an "It Looked Good on Paper" Inventory.

Is this the "legendary" Billy Jack of which I've heard tell?

"note"

I'm glad the subject came up just so I can not that today is R. Crumb's 67th birthday—I, for one, plan to celebrate by haplessly ogling the substantial haunches of some meaty, unnatainable Amazon and then hating myself afterward.

I'm imagining a whole different version of 'Where the Wild Things Are'.

Not featuring Gabrielle Union is a deal breaker.

I don't know how exctensive the term "rents" was used by Generation X or anyone else for that matter—It strikes me as the kind of thing that may have been in a movie once (perhaps as a pun for the caretaker parents also being the source of rent money) and then was taken up by journalists and other media types who…

*clears his throat*

Madcamp—don't forget Bob, Carol, Ted, Alice, the Cook, the Thief, his wife and her lover.

Speaking of home surgery—I've never intentionally operated on myself, but I did assist with the neutering of a cat once—I was in Grenada where keeping housecats (or, really, any animals apart from guard dogs and livestock) is practically unknown, so Betty White and the late Bob Barker would be appalled to know that…

Kodiak's made me laugh.

Favorite Phrase of the Day
A surprising tie!:

'White Noise' is a book I found myself enjoying so much that I actually kept stopping reading it so that I could draw out the pleasure longer—I actually didn't want to be finished with it.

Okay, I recognize that 'Combat Rock's not a Funk or a Soul album in the purest or strictest sense—and I kind of expect that people understand I don't mean to compare it to the best or even the bulk of either genre—to be technical, it probably qualifies as Post-Punk insofar as it was from that era and shares the same…
