13 May 2009: 1983

Am I crazy, or have the "classics" been really worthy of the name lately?  It's like someone's actually trying to pick good, diverse sets (even if they've thrown the once-a-month rule out the window, year-wise).

BOS5 T-Heads

I was wondering that too. We do seem to be getting the cream of the crop, mostly.

Uber-BOS H&O Family Man.

Holy crap: BOS6 (!) H&O -- "Family Guy" in it's only appearance, iirc.

Yep, but seems like most of them lately have been no older than 2007 (today's was from Feb 27, 2008). Which means sooner or later either they start digging further back or we're gonna start hearing reruns of reruns.

Urth -- two questions:

Any special reason for the BOC avatar?

And why is it the reverse image?

yes!  there's a chance I might be out of town, but if in town, I'll be there!    Even though they're down to original members Eric Bloom and Buck Dharma, i still diggem.  Buck Dharma looks like your average frumpy accountant, but he still plays well.

I might be up for that too.  Even if it is a Monday.  (so tired)

To answer Rod's questions, no special reason--I just didn't feel like keeping Frank Gorshin et al as an avatar any longer, and I had this on my hard disk.

As for the backward image, that's how the one I snagged was. Props to you for recognizing it.

ETA: How's it look now?

Perfect.  I noticed because that's how I mark my golf balls.  I'll have to take a picture of my balls (ahem) this weekend an post...

That's OK--there's an image I really don't need to see.
