BOS2 Prince, "Purple Rain" -- saw bits and pieces of the movie all weekend on VH-! Soul, and I saw this song at least twice.

when the 1984 convention was happening, my shop was right around the corner on Folsom St, where LuLu's restaurant now resides.

Hearing Republicans talking about values always gives me a stomachache.

Speaking of Republican values, how about Palin's 17 yr old daughter turning up 5 months pregnant?

Well, whatever works, but I wouldn't personally condone using this to smear the ticket.  I think I heard Barack taking the high road this morning -- a candidates children should be off limits in a campaign.  Which is the proper (political) move, even if it's BS. 



My point would be that this is exactly the kind of family values you get all across the bible belt.  And since they are a nice suburban white family it's okay.  But can you even begin to imagine if Obama's daughter was 17 yrs old and the same thing happened?  No way a pregnant unwed teen black girl gets a personal approval message from James Dobson.

ETA, I would love to see some demographics on the correlation between states that are staunchly republican and teen pregnancy among whites.

EXACTLY!  And what Dems are missing here is that there's a shitload of trailer-trash Fundies out there. Gay marriage "threatens the American family" but pregnant teen daughters are OK as long as they don't have abortions. And Palin so *totally* fires up those people -- they thinks she's the bee's knees.

and -- TANC -- here's "A Girl in Trouble"! Bwahahahaha!

I'm sure they do charitable work with unwed mothers, like helping them get their start! (ol' Steve Martin joke). Now let's hear "A Girl In Trouble..."

Wasn't it Bob who "accidentally" played the uncensored version of this recently?  You can't say "Shit" but Frankie can "cuuuuuuummmmmm!" LOL!

reminds me of the old Carlin line "you can prick your finger... but you can't finger your prick"

a preponderance of relative rarities makes this one of Dave's best '84 sets in some time.
