It's All Right

I've watched waaaaay too much "Saved By the Bell" in my life.  I quickly went from mocking my little sister for watching such a dumb program to going to a college and joining a fraternity that had no cable television.  So we watched TPIR, we watched "Small Wonder," and we watched SBTB.

As such, we drank our college days away to the Zack Attack, watched Jessie get hooked on pills, and stared at Kelly Kapowski doing pretty much anything onscreen.  Age of consent be damned.  We knew what MVEMJSNUP means, we know that AC stands for Albert Clifford, and we know that Tori Spelling was pretty lousy in any role she ever played.  And then we went to see Elizabeth Berkley in Showgirls on Opening Night.  Of course we did.

This is pretty much what our fratres talk about when they speak of hideously wasting an amazing resource that was the College's education.  Eh.

The other night Jimmy Fallon did this:

Screech is in the pokey and Lisa is somewhere doing something less cool than this, I guess.

Worth a chuckle for the sadly initiated.  Belding's appearance might just scare me into getting in shape.  And Kelly's still got it.  This definitely makes me think we ought to post some of our old undergrad feature films.  (At another university they would be sex tapes, but nope, not at our old school.)

Enjoy.

My Polyphonic Spree Jacket

Not sure how else to describe Jim James' performance recently on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.  Many of you may know Mr. James from his day job as lead singer of My Morning Jacket.

Song starts slow and ends strong, to quite strong.  Patience, young Skywalker.
