    The 80s… what a time for music!

    My homage to the 80s

    I’ve always adored the 80s. I especially love Kate Bush and her contribution to music. I recently released a song that although doesn’t sound like it’s straight out of the 80s, I was trying to create some elements when writing it.

    The drums sound huge, like a Phil Collins song. The lyrics have echoes of “Running Up That Hill”. The sax.

    What do you think? Did I get some of the elements of the 80s in there well?

    Dirty Work-(1998)

    Last week was my first time seeing this movie, and as Norm MacDonald and Chris Farley are my favorite actors i thought it was pretty hilarious, loved it.

    Did anyone enjoy the movie? What are your favorite quotes, or scenes?

    Old yahoo chat with avatars? You could play a songs and move next to someone to exchange pics

    No one has ever remembered this and I cant find any screen shots. I'd say around 1998 or so you could join a yahoo chat where you could make a little avatar and hang in chat. You could exchange songs to play in chat, I specifically remember getting korn - blind and limp bizcuit - faith audio files in like 5 or 6 parts and they each played 5 seconds or so. You could move your avatar next to someone and trade pics and files and what not. I feel like ascii pics like the middle fingers in the chat was popular. There was voice chat too

    Anyone remember / help me out or am I crazy?

    The little blue calculator (TI-108)

    I was amused when I saw these on Amazon. I’m glad to see they still make them! It took me right back to grade school. I had to pick one up for my son. 😊
