A quick question for the "powers that be":
I just crossed over to 300+ postings, but I'm still listed as "two bits".  Shouldn't that at least be "three bits"?     :)
Geoff, you heard the man, and his math is correct: Give a little bit!

Sorry to be the asshole teacher, but his math is incorrect, but the point is made.  Two bits is 250 posts, so Three Bits (I just added it) should be...?

ROTFL!!  ...black performers like Hall & Oates...

who did that parody?


Joe Piscopo?


I forget the guy's name (dunno if Dave ID'd it in the backannounce) but he's played it before; I taped it and used it on a politically-themed mixtape about 10 years ago.

Okay, I know you're all lurking out there.  Just be sure to come in for the "Ba-by" in unison.

VHM #2 Tracey Ullman


Isn't that song a Katrina?? I don't mind it but it seems like it's played almost everytime a 1984 set is done.

Indeed it is -- but a "beloved" one rather than a drag.  I'd say 7 out of 10 in that set were 'trinas.
