What does that have to do with PiL?

Jolt goes back to the mid-80's but had a comeback in the 90s

What a terrible thing to do to Brad Delp.

I watched Branagh's "Much Ado about Nothing" a couple of nights ago and even though i hadn't seen it in probably 20 years, I remembered quite a bit of it.
Emma Thompson looked absolutely radiant and the gorgeous Tuscan back drops look like they are out of a story book

Work goals are all in a topsy turvy due to the breakup of my department. I'm guessing I'll either be put in the the server nerds or the programmer nerds.

Yeah "pike perch" threw me too. Makes as much sense as "badger squirrel"

I saw Henley in 1990 and I really liked the "End of the Innocence" album at the time. He kinda pissed some people off with all the sermonizing between songs, enough so the the big sing along near the end, "Desperado" was a huge dud.

Nearly three weeks of no sweetened pop, only tea for caffeine. I did cheat a little bit and had a small free root beer float at the supermarket.

Fuck the budget situation that's splitting up my department and sacking my Director. You build up a department from nothing, keep the cost center in the black for 20 years and all the while never getting flagged in an audit and all he gets is one month's severance. Ten person department now down to six, now down to

Rick and Morty. So hilariously twisted

So gloriously mid-80's Tangerine Dream

He self reports his Constitution as 16 (Stamina!) but he's probably at 7 or 8. He uses Gaulf's Cart of Carrying (standard movement speed) on standard terrain.

The kids are brats, the food is hideous

The only thing I remember is "edible panties". Eleven year old me wondered, how does that work?

At West Acres mall the arcade was called "Pirate's Den". it had no windows, black walls nearly zero lighting beyond the games and pinball machines. In fact the one time I was there at closing time and they turned on the lights to signal "wrap it up" was a really bizarre experience.

I'm the opposite, I never got into Slayer/ post "…and Justice" Metallica because 1) I think I had had enough of that\my tastes had changed 2) Metallica show in 1989 "broke" me (sore neck/back/hoarse voice for 2-3 days afterwards). My feelings at the time were were I can't top that, so move on to something else.

There must have been some CompSci geeks that made that game because the levels were named after computer languages (BASIC, RPG, COBOL, FORTRAN), which was a surprise to me later in life.

And the 30 foot tall carrots taste like the tree that they are.

It's never a good thing when you get meeting invite in the afternoon for a meeting with the VP and the interim associate VP for the next morning. "Prepare for the worst, hope for the best" Well it wasn't the worst (i wasn't laid off), but it wasn't much better (the department's being broke up and our director's
