S Dog & T Bird look like they're about to bust a gut over these fools in the audience. Some clearly not buyin' tho.

For those who dabble in Biblical, Plane or Flat earth, here is a summation that you might get a kick out of:

Literally the first thing I thought of when I first heard this song, when I was 12, was that the 21st night of September was the day before Bilbo and Frodo's birthday and the epic party after which Frodo inherited the Ring of Power.

Got off the road, back then, & had bought EWF's live dubble album.

Came home, big party, someone stole it before I even got a chance to listen... Still want it back.

REASONS.

I just learned that RFK Jr's wife killed herself after finding his dairy, reading about his 37 affairs, and probably how stupid she was and how much he hated her.

So I hope Hines survives her marriage with this insanely disgusting toxic stain on humanity.

Back in the day, Jose Canseco ran a 900 number that let callers hear Jose’s deep thoughts for the day.

Yeah, I called it once.

Casper compels me to toss some more dineros Wonkette's way.

Casper is a splendid beastie, those Sony commercials are hilarious and my daughter and her school friend ran up a tidy sum dialing 1-900-NEW-KIDS; we got the charges removed.

Thanks for the EW&F reminder, Robyn! Must now go chase some clouds away…

Ah yes, that 900 number that let you talk to beautiful people over the phone -- not video phones, mind you, because we didn't have those yet -- but just regular, everyday handsets plugged into the wall. *le sigh*

Reminds of that story about a prankster somewhere who got a bunch of Moms for Liberty types all riled up over a rumor that some local station was going to switch over to an "All Nude Radio" format. Morons...

I don't give a rat's ass about sports. But even I became (slightly) interested in stories about a Japanese player named Shohei Ohtani who came over to the Dodgers & just became the first 50/50 man in baseball history. That's 50 home runs & 50 stolen bases in the same season, for people with my level of interest in sports. That's impressive enough. But a little casual research disclosed that the guy is a fucking pitcher! Batting as a DH because of elbow surgery! And he still went 50/50! And counting - season's not over yet! That's some Michael Jordan level athletic accomplishment. Even I have to take notice. Sheesh.

PS - Earth, Wind & Fire kick ass. I saw them with Santana last year at Jones Beach. Philip Bailey may be the best falsetto singer currently working.

I had to watch a dozen cycles of that second gif to a) read the lines as they strobed by, and then b) to figure out if it said, "'cause you want people to think that you constantly have an erection," or "you constantly have an erection 'cause you want people to think that (whatever "that" referred to)." I guess it's the first? Either way, I don't get the point of it in this page's context (don't know the source scene, so that doesn't help me either).

Some context: If I remember correctly, it's from an episode of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" where Larry David is wearing a pair of corduroy pants that automatically fold into a tent around his crotch when he sits down making it look like he's got a boner. Here he's complaining about this to his TV wife, Cheryl Hines, the real life wife of disease advocate, whale mutilator, and serial adulterer RFK Jr.

Today is my beloved mother's birthday as well. She would fit well in this list of lauded individuals. Sadly she died at the young age of 48, 43 years ago. She is still missed by so many.
