Quote Of The Day
For the Music Monday segment Teresa chose "If You Leave" as one of the songs she would want to hear at her prom (shockingly she didn't go to hers despite wanting to very badly). The song led into a discussion about Pretty In Pink, which in turn led to much laughter about how one in every three movies in the 80s was about some teenage girl being ostracized and declared off limits by her pursuer's jock buddies because she's not rich or "from the right side of the tracks". Bonaduce deftly reestablished the reality and strict social order of high school humping--

Danny: She doesn't have to be from the wrong side of the tracks, she could actually be laying ON the tracks with the train coming and if you have time to finish, she's from the right side of the tracks.


Clip Recommendations:
[1] Mother's Day Recap-- Adam and Danny recount the pain of yesterday . Also a good rant somewhere in the middle about the devaluation of gift certificates. Then some talk about the sad state of having someone in your family that you have to get gifts for that is among the "constant disappointment people"-- sheesh, I actually think I'm one of them. I know my father is, last Christmas I got him a new tv and his reaction was much like Carolla's description of his dad's gung ho reaction.
[2] Mom Horror Stories-- Hey, your mom might be bad...but at least she didn't BITE you.
[3] Music Monday-- Listen to the full 80s school class warfare spiel here, located about a third of the way in I believe. Adam had much to add.
