it's a victimless crime, like punching someone in the dark

Garbage (the refuse) is on display at my place.

No, that's Prince

don't forget about The Love Bug, with that damn hippie Buddy Hackett.

Z2-E2?

as a musician there have been a number of people who i wanted to play like. play guitar like clapton, piano like dr. john, sing and write like paul simon, paul mcartney, carole king, etc….., but i always wanted, in some unspecific way, to BE prince, even if i never really tried.

totally i agree. i have a very hefty aversion to 80s pop production, but prince's 80's stuff just sounds great to me.

on the early records, that's mr. martin playing piano. from the speeding up the tape to sound like harpsichord on "in my life" to the excellent rock n' roll on "rock n' roll music". plus, i believe he got the calliope sounds for "being for the benefit of mr. kite"

ahh, chica hamburgesa!

my favorite Oscar memory was his reaction when Felix decided to redecorate the apartment

mob wives? what mob wives. I ain't seen nothin'. nobody 'round here saw nothin"

it won't be the same without Karen

I imagine a Victorian Cage would be made of elaborate wrought iron

first thing i thought of when i saw the headline was Dark Helmet playing with his dolls in "Spaceballs"
