My college roommate from NJ lived about a mile from the Fountains of Wayne store. I was crushed when he told me a few years ago that it closed!

Unfortunately I always get that song title mixed up with Ball of Confusion (as covered by Love & Rockets: https://www.youtube.com/wat…, even though the songs are nothing alike, to the point that I thought the song was called Ball of Destruction.

Those would be excellent questions, I concur.

Since your dad moved out your mom could use a guy like meee!

Michael & Heather is a great song, and I love the following track as well, Strapped for Cash with it's cute little Billy Joel callback (… ack ack ack), heck I love all FoW, but the middle run of tracks on SFoH is to me among their best work: "Someone's Gonna Break Your Heart," "Action Hero," "A Dip in the Ocean,"…

I love all FoW albums but that's interesting as I'd say the opposite, Traffic & Weather was solid but Sky Full of Holes blew me away.

I Melt with You. Burned into every '80's kid's brain.

This was absolutely the crux of the movie for me, did she make the right decision or not. It's the age-old dilemma, is it better to have loved and lost than never loved at all? This movie says yes. Heartbreaking.

Um, spoilers?

His real name is Arnold Rothstein. Time is relative you know.

I think maybe you just didn't get it.

Yep. She simply fell asleep. Not a whole lot of sleuthing required here.

A bad Nacho, methinks.
