Ahhh nostalgia…

His radio show was just discontinued in my market, but I got to listen to it for several months. There were parts of his schtick I enjoyed, but whenever he wandered into politics, it was just death.

The house party in "The Baby." Really, seemed like a good '70s vibe, like it could double as both a family gathering and an adult-themed party, and no one got uptight about the overlap.

Agree with all the points. I'm not even a fan, but I often listen to this particular track. There aren't many songs that just smack you in the face with life, but this one does. The last verse is just devastating.

I like how when there's the first confrontation between the two towns' kids, the expression on Martin Prince's face indicates that he's ready to start some shit.

Just recalling interviews, yes, it was a college guy who "needed the money," and did have to drink to work up the courage. Supposedly he was crying at certain points.

I was 13 when I stayed up late, alone, and decided to watch this movie as HBO showed it right after "Return of the Living Dead."

It seems like accounts would have to be qualified by the age of the viewer. For instance, when I was a boy I simply didn't think cinema had produced a scarier scene than in "The Amityville Horror" when they find the "red room" in the basement and the ghost appears and stares at George Lutz. It's the most all the…

"I Know It's Going to Happen Someday: The GOP's Road Back to the White House" by Newt Gingrich.

"Lemonade and Brownies" was actually a good album, especially considering the context of when it appeared.

Yes, everyone stopped thinking about them so long ago, because they're so associated with a time-place musical trend. But they're an objectively good band.

Hal just wanted to watch this in peace, but soon a whole big group came into the commons room and ruined his isolation. He made his dissatisfaction known by passive-aggressively adding extra noises to the act of spitting his tobacco into his cup.

If Mandy Pitinkin Was a Horse

Morrissey had a dispute with someone?

Dario Argento… His naked daughter… Giant preying mantis…

I've actually never seen "Phenomena," but I've seen "Creepers" many times, and it's one of my favorites. I know I should check out P, but C is so perfectly calibrated for a fast-moving, bat-guano, rip-roaring good time that I'm afraid P would ruin C's place in my heart.

Better 'n The Sopranos.

Really? No one's gonna make a comic-book guy reference?

Don't know that this has been addressed, but I remember this episode as a direct sendup of that early-'90s case of that American punk kid being caned in Singapore.
