I feel like we just heard this Erasure ("A Little  Respect") recently.

ETA: apparently not, but it's been in several of AL's Pride sets.

Reagan vs Noriega --> "Suedehead", which as much as I love Moz, is rather LN at this point.

4/27/15 Monday!! It's a kick back in...1988!!

(News: computer virus!)

I note that this news clip conflates PC boot sector viruses, which were still extremely rare
in 1988, with the Morris worm, which only infiltrated Unix systems on the Internet.

Bwahaha! I missed that somehow. AL's handwriting must be pretty sketchy.

(additionally, I'm not fond of using "+" instead of "&", as the intern did in that same list)
