How did *I* miss this article????

I haven't seen the show, but the outfit pictured above is not quite right. Going by the 1893 setting of the novel, she'd have big leg-o-mutton sleeves and a high-necked blouse under the jacket (or a much less dramatic neckline with no cleavage,) and her hair would be up. With her hair down and nothing under the…

School movies, roughly covering 1975 - 1987:

Fun Canadian facts:

….she said, "No. Boy, would you come home to me?'
Ramblin' boy, why don't you settle down?
Winnipag ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number-one fan of the man from Tanessee."

What, you mean Millennials aren't going to love "Dat's what is my Iacocca" and "Let's Run Over Lionel Richie With a Tank"?

Bratz are still in production. They currently have a witch school theme going in one line.

Yes to all of the above, but especially @The_Misanthrope:disqus .

When I was a kid (born in '69,) we got my Grandparents' old Beetle, complete with rusted-out floor, although there was a mat over the hole. But it was so cool to remove the mat and watch the road go by…Anyway, when we picked it up from them and drove it home, we also took a big bag of rhubarb from their garden, and…

That was my first TMBG show too - Frank Black played (solo with guitar,) and then it was John and John with accordion, guitar, and drum machine (opening for themselves,) and then the full band and horn section. It was at the State Theatre in Minneapolis and it was AWESOME.

I most remember these - not really funny at all…

My company's retail website was designed in 1997 or so, with the best web design ideas of, oh, 1993?, and was not updated or redesigned until 2010. Little clip art GIFs everywhere…pages that were lists of things with no photos, no descriptions, no links, and no way to put them in a shopping cart…flashing text…I'm sure…
