Facebook keeps my father's page fresh. I'd delete it, but how?
I just found the movie Xanadu and this is just absolutely the peak of cinema

I never watched Xanadu until recently. It is fantastic for all of the reasons that you mentioned, but…
I wouldn’t have gone to see it when I was younger.
You might enjoy watching Flash Gordon. It’s full of great 80’s content.
To my fellow GenX side-sleepers...

I use Apple Music for my streaming, but it’s not my favourite source of content. The algorithm doesn’t suggest anything that would make me feel uncomfortable. That’s why it’s important to keep using Allmusic and Pitchfork. My wife has fantastic taste in music as well. We watched Coachella over the past two weekends and we loved CMAT, Lil Sims and Geese.
Take a minute today and let your kids listen to Randy Newman’s, “Short People”. Their reaction is hilarious.

Shel Silverstein, Frank Zappa, Warren Zevon and many others wouldn’t have been accepted if they were contemporary artists. Even Randy Newman had to go Disney in order to survive.

I would probably try a bowl of Frosted Flakes, but I wouldn’t enjoy the high blood sugar that comes from eating them.
I'm 53 (1973) but still feel 16 inside...

That’s just internalized ageism when you’re talking about a “cranky closed-minded middle-age person”. The only place I allow myself to act that way is at work. The rest of the time, I am just an extremely old teenager.

Nostalgia is a great drug. There is no way to know if what you’re thinking of is true.
