  1. A little background on my joke https://archive.org/details/wingcurseofthebarbedwirebat19950604
  2. We just had to let the family dog go. Leo was 15 years old, so he had a pretty good, long life. Spoiled rotten dachshund, totally unsocialized and barked at everything, loved my mom from the day he chose her out of the group of puppies she was introduced to. They took him to the doctor ("the girls", as they were known here) and he was diagnosed with kidney failure. I've been through it once before with our basset hound Comet who lived about as long and it was a relief for her to not be in pain anymore. Leo was barely eating and looked terrible, he got bad really quick over the last 2-3 months, so it's good that he won't be suffering worse. I loved him a lot.
  3. Well well. The Price Is Right just had on the Cliffhanger game and the lady actually won it. I don't think the crowd had ever seen that, either. (Side note: A thermos with a handle is now $45?!?!) Drew is dressed like he's taken a visit to UPHOLSTERY MAN Clothing Emporium and Appliances.
  4. Saturn would be that guy who had a middling score on the back of a Marvel Comics character trading card except for the equivalent of wrestling "form" or "movez" or whatever, which would be full bars, wouldn't he.
  5. Ah. You wrote Kerry up there. "We're goin for that 25 grand and that tag team..." *freezes* Ooof. Stealing Flair's lisp (both of them) was pretty crappy too. EDIT: Actually since it was Florida they were probably stealing from Dusty too. Not a heel, but still.
  6. I wasn't aware that Harlem and the South Bronx were European countries.
  7. Danielson needs a moment where he puts him in the Yes Lock and won't break, and they have to call down like ten security guys to break the grip, and finally Moxley backs him off, Danielson rolls away... and Mox drops down into Bulldog Choke so they have another ten guys swarm the ring and finally stretcher him out.
  8. Even Nakanishi (who actually had Luger's finisher) got a gold watch reign. You think it's about time?
  9. I can't get on DM on Google, but wasn't that a house show match on a Schneider comp? Funny that the funniest part of the dirty Brain and Gorilla was relatively tame (Gino saying "Good, because he sucks!" ).
  10. I wonder if Kerry was focused because in Japan he could have had less or maybe even no access to the drugs he was on (pills obviously more likely to be there). Or it was the Von Erich in him working hard for the Japanese because that's what you are supposed to do. Or, just remembering how Dave went. When you think about it there is a lot of things to be going through that guy's head over there.
  11. "They made casting mistakes, that's for sure" gets me too
  12. Just to drop in on the cartoon talk a bit, I had a flashback to the Inhumanoids and looked up that toy/cartoon series, and found out it is a crazy in-depth Japanese production mixing ecological concern with dark sci-fi and elemental-spirit concepts. They showed scary stuff like people melting and transforming into monsters in a very grade school level cartoon series and it's wild; the whole thing's on Youtube.
  13. Messiah of Evil was just on TV recently. It's as loony as I'd heard. Here's a way better version of it than the one that was on the Film Detective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DeDFDxMdsGk FFO: Carnival of Souls
  14. Next night: "THE ROCK BUSTED OUT A ROCKSAULT FROM ALL THE WAY ON TOP OF THE MOON IN PHILADELPHIA!"
  15. House on Haunted Hill ('59) is on TV. Just how many roles as a drunk or a bum did Elisha Cook, Jr. play?
  16. A very very funky movement (cue Bootsy Collins bassline and horn section)
  17. Good old Disney. Gotta keep the parents from having to explain anything about how the real world works to their children, until it's too late.
  18. Huh. That was '93, I was high school by '99 there, in Marion (next to Carbondale). I guess it was still Dazed and Confused for the most part -- kids were still driving in circles, parking at the Hardees. But I was treated like shit so much I ended up hanging out with all the juvenile delinquents who were smoking pot, stealing pills from their parents, and huffing air duster. It didn't end well.
  19. The silver strip totally sets off your outfit
  20. Pretty sure my thought right then was "Boy, do these have to be in every match?" It could have been in Claudio/Archer though.
  21. Finally watched it last night and I'm not sure how cooperative it was. Bob already had the black eye going in, but Funaki just laid into it the whole time. Twice Bob laid in a nasty elbow to settle Funaki down, but he just kept at it. Finally they did the keylock lift to the top rope that's a favorite Backlund spot, but Funaki dropkicks him from the second buckle to get DQ'd? Feels like it was pre-planned but also feels abrupt and cheap. In any case, Bob is probably as stubborn as he is crazy, because he took bookings in freakin' BattlARTS down the road after this.
  22. I'm definitely thinking Mox is injured and the original idea was indeed FTR/BCC finale. Now the cheap brackets, I dunno... Get it over fast? Bigger plans after? If the booking has been spoiled, there could be a bunch of reasons.
  23. Swear, I've never even heard of Out of the Blue before. You'd definitely think I would, obviously -- punk rock, Dennis Hopper, teen angst. I've gotta see it after checking out the trailer on iMDB. (How the hell did they do the semi running into the school bus?!?!) Matter of fact I've never heard of Pointed Sticks either, which is another really weird blank spot. A little poppy for my taste, and keyboards in my punk is always weird, but here's their first LP anyway: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2r3QapCio0 Here's your trailer too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ua8Axep434&pp=ygUXb3V0IG9mIHRoZSBibHVlIHRyYWlsZXI%3D
