    Farewell to the Fabulous Moolah, who passed away last Friday. I remember watching WWF with my brother back in the 80’s, and being absolutely flabbergasted by the fact that there was an actual WOMAN on the BAD GUYS’ TEAM. She was pretty cool.

  • Moving help

    Help! This is an official plea for Moving Assistance. We’ve come to the conclusion that our television is just two big for two people to move without serious risk of dropping it. I know some of you have said you’d help… so here it is. Let me know if you’re free either some night this…
