Having a space monkey worked so well for 'Lost in Space'

I assume they have to pee sometimes.

I'm taking as many of you bastards with me as I can.

I had already seen 'Aliens' the movie several times, but fingers crossed on the real life.

I watched 'Alien' for the first time last week at age 44.

Would that it were so simple.

The Astrodome was no prize.

Since we had WGN on our cable system in my hometown in the Texas Panhandle, I'd watch a lot of Cubs games when we were out of school for the summer (and that was before Wrigley had lights, so they had a lot of day games), and I was frequently jealous of Cubs fans getting to spend their afternoons at that beautiful

The Bangles version of 'Hazy Shade of Winter' (which we all remember was from the 'Less Than Zero' soundtrack from '87 or so) was one that stood out to me.

That's nuts.

I saw the "Hack the Gibson" text on Darlene's computer, and, since I understood the reference, it was the only time I've ever felt even mildly smart while watching Mr. Robot.
