One of the conspirators who helped Gavrilo Princip shoot Archduke Franz Ferdinand survived to see the breakup of Yugoslavia. He could conceivably have watched the Neighbours episode where Scott and Charlene got married

A scene in the movie From Beyond. Barbara Crampton is shown flanked by two male co-stars. She is wearing a white blouse and some extreme 80s shoulder pads.

I'm kind of surprised that the new Dora the Explorer series is just her navigating the emotional fallout of a failed startup.

That “from New Zealand” is a hilarious non sequitur

Letterboxd entry for a 1984 thriller called Innocent Prey.

BEING TERRIFIED IS JUST THE BEGINNING
A woman living in Dallas discovers that her husband, from New Zealand, is actually a crazed serial killer who murders prostitutes.

I like this. I actually have one of her sister’s albums on CD. It’s great, although I haven’t looked any further into flamenco yet.

Sunbeams are great, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise

Black and white cat on her back with her legs in the air playing with a scratching tree in a sunbeam

I wonder how many people have been permanently poisoned by that fucking "More Cowbell" SNL sketch and don't realize that Blue Öyster Cult were actually one of the greatest rock bands of all time

TIL that Living Colour’s album Stain was out of print for years because someone called Jon Stainbrook from a a bad called The Stain sued Sony. Yet Staind have been allowed to roam free all this time?

From the mid-1990s through the early 2010s, the album was out of print due to rights issues after a lawsuit from Jon Stainbrook of
the band The Stain forced Sony to cease production of the album. 81[9] In November

I recently picked up Funky Good Time, a compilation of tunes by various versions of Brown’s backing band The JB’s. Highly recommended, just non stop funk goodness.
