Happy birthday to my wonderful wife, @etoiline

One of the most heartbreaking lines from a book I've ever read is from "Flowers for Algernon" by Daniel Keyes:

"I don't care so much about being famous. I just want to be smart like other people so I can have lots of friends who like me".

Back when I was a kid, I used to hate waking up in the middle of the night to a dark room with only the faint glow of the VCR time display as the only source of light illuminating the far side of my room, and invariably it was at 1:11AM, which provided the least amount of light. But 12:45AM was the brightest, so at least then I could see if the monsters looked hungry or not.

Just finished watching "Doc Hollywood" for about the 100th time. Movie never gets old. A great early 90's classic comedy.

There are two kinds of people in this world . . . those who prefer the original "99 Luftballoons" by Nena, and those who prefer the English version "99 Red Balloons" (oh, okay, maybe there's a third kind of person who doesn't like either version, but just humor me, okay?)

I can't be the only person who confuses Dylan McDermott with Dermot Mulroney, and vice versa . . . am ?!

@SeanTrebek If you need to talk, man, you know where to find me.

THAT scene from "Aliens" has forever ruined my ability to lift the covering to the attic and peek inside. It's likely a squirrel making those noises up there, I know that, but still . . .

Dear Canada,

Thank you for Sarah McLachlan.

Much love,
Everybody

I was today years old when I found out that American actor, comedian, director, and screenwriter, Albert Brooks, is the brother of the late American actor, comedy writer, and producer, Bob "Super Dave Osborne" Einstein.

Life keeps teaching us lessons every day, and none more profound than "It doesn't matter how things start, but the hard work that gets us to where we want to be." Case in point, Canadian film director, film producer, screenwriter, and actor, Shawn Levy.

While studying at Yale, he made his feature film debut in the low-budget horror movie "Zombie Nightmare". Yeah, that movie, the one you might've seen on MST3K.

Now read his résumé on IMDB.

Here endeth the lesson. 😉

Shake Shack should add a third option in addition to "To Go" and "Dine In". Something like "Live Here Forever". Just a thought as I sit here devouring a Carolina BBQ burger.

@CLManussier Further clarification, this was in the yearbook, so even ball-ier.

I still get a kick out of my old high school buddy, Bill, who had his name listed for the jazz band group picture as "A. Lifeson" (Alex Lifeson). 😂

@kismatt Thank goodness. In those older movies where they throw a newspaper on the screen, my eyes are invariably drawn to the "Building Code Under Fire" story.

Any big news stories happening today I should know about? 😂

This Wednesday at 6PM CT/7PM ET, the MFG Drive-In Theater Show presents 1979's "Time After Time"!

"H.G. Wells pursues Jack the Ripper to the 20th Century when the serial murderer uses the future writer's time machine to escape his time period."
