Arista took the album out of print shortly after the scandal broke, and supposedly refuses to license the material either. However, I still hear them on some retro hip-hop stations.

Funny thing is I remember Jesuits, both in college and in my local parish, who have praised "Last Temptation" and urged people to watch it. Then again, a lot of Jesuits are basically Christian Marxists.

"Sucks" was a lot more verboten word back in the early 80s. I remember when Yankees fans started chanting "Steinbrenner sucks!" back then, a lot of magazines wouldn't print the word.

There have been 9026(!) episodes of Coronation Street, almost all in prime time, since 1960.

Isn't a lot of that about few colleges playing pro style offenses anymore?

Great point. Outside of truly massive news, the only way to know news events that had happened in the last few hours was the top of hour radio news. Weird that 30 years ago that's all we had.

From what I understand, isn't there no real evidence for Marlowe writing those plays? All they've got is computer logrithms that match up Marlowe's style of writing with the plays, which doesn't really strike me as convincing.

Back to me reply up the thread, "rock and roll" meant something totally different in the past. Plus why shouldn't great non-rock artists be in? Both in sound and attitude, Ornette Coleman and Waylon Jennings are far more rock and roll that James Taylor/CSN/solo Eric Clapton ever were.

Oh lord here we go again
When "rock and roll" started being used in the 50s, it was originally a codeword for "black people's music". It soon morphed into anything that had teen appeal, from Bobby Darin to Little Richard. So Tupac is far more "rock and roll" than most acts in the Hall of Fame.

You posted "Go Cubs Go" and not Steve Goodman's other Cubs related song, A Dying Cubs Fans' Last Request?

Plus it's funny that Caray is almost entirely identified with the Cubs when he spent many more years with the Cardinals. He even spent a decade doing White Sox games.

Although the fans are very cool, there was nothing more embarassing than Blue Jays fans at Mariners games. http://www.570news.com/wp-c…
I mean, would you guess that pick was in Seattle and not Toronto if you weren't told?

The 2-for-1 tapes were a lot worse. I've got a tape pack of Johnny Cash's Folsom and San Quentin albums that alternate tracks from the two albums.

Considering last year's Nobel literature laurete (Svetlana Alexievich) won for her semi-journalistic articles, your argument's at least a year too late.

Christine Chubbuck, for how little is known about her, prompts some obsessive followers online. Check out this 58-page (!) thread about Christine and the hunt to see if the suicide footage still exists—quick answer, it apparently still is around but isn't ever coming out.

The thing I'm wondering is "when exactly did kids like clowns"? I've been to dozens of kids' parties in my lifetime (age 41) and never did I see a clown or even clown themes at them. None of the big party stores seem to have clown themes. The only people I've seen with clown items are middle aged or older women.

Not to mention the forest of receipts they give you for even small purchases, the fact they won't accept my debit card to pay off my mom's monthly payments, and a computer system that must date back to the Commodore 64.

I noticed that in a lot of "out of business" sales these days: markdowns in the 15-20% range. Where does all the unsold stuff go these days?

Same as Tacoma, except it's the regional Arthur Lee chain.

I read in the 90s that, even in Manhattan, it is three times more expensive to build one 1200 foot building than three 400 foot buildings.

The Scorpions had a tradition of abysmal album art—the creepy sexual overtones of the "Animal Magnetism" and "Lovedrive" covers, and worst of all the totally SFW "Fly to the Rainbow" cover
