KC & The Sunshine Band - Get Down Tonight

[mitjalovse]

Tim Renwick might seem like a hidden figure, yet he can manage to be pretty much everywhere as we've seen. For example, He found himself on the records by Andy Gibb, which aren't given a fair shake, I fear. Look, Andy Gibb was probably on his way to become a honorary Bee Gee, but set aside all the hype he had and consider the fact he equipped himself quite well for the tunes. Sure, his brothers give him their immense quality songwriting, yet the fact he didn't stumble in here showed he had a promise. Who knows where he could've gone later on. I mean, I assume he would've survived the 80's much better than Bee Gees, though this can only be our guess as he still remains underappreciated thanks to the popularity he had.

The Road to Gold

[hopetorun]

🎤 maggie with the cup final in play, i have ogwacs on the brain. who are your guys who haven't won that you would most love to see get one before all is said and done? we won't define an ogwac as strictly as most, so i'd say like. if we feel like they've been around forever and they're like 30 at least we can call them an ogwac for this exercise!

oh gosh!!!! there's such an assortment of guys that i've been fond of over the years for various and sundry reasons so in no particular order of fondness but starting with oh let's say the strongest contender on the list

pomo!! you didn't say i could include non-players but i am anyway, i think he's earned the title. two scfs more than twenty years apart gets you on my list

jeff skinner revenge tour. i don't think this requires explaining. i can't believe i have to root for the sabres but christ. if there's anyone in the league who deserves it. my only comfort here is that the previous record holder for most gp without any playoff games got traded to a contender as a deadline rental and promptly won the cup that year. only good thing the p*ns have ever done for me.

taylor hall. he's one of my longest-tenured favorite guys and like. man what a rough go of it he's had since 2018. also before 2018. but i had such a blast watching him when i was first getting into hockey and i think he deserves nice things.

jordan eberle. he was never quite the same level of special guy for me but i would truly be so stoked. kr*ken stop being cowards and make him captain.

justin faulk. one of my guys!! not on the blues though. i would bust out my old extremely stained faulk jersey in his honor!

someone on twitter pointed out that if the cats win, oel will be the person player to win the cup while on the canucks payroll which i do unfortunately think is very funny. anyway i love a comeback story AND that man did his time in the wars (coyotes org) so i think that would be a lovely cap on a rough few years

honestly most of the core players from the sharks mid-teens teams. some exceptions apply. that team was so bananas good for so long and not only did they never win, i don't think any of them have even gone on to successfully cup chase anywhere else? rough. i think pavs' likely retirement leaves burns as the only guy who was really there for all of it, assuming @moregraceful told me correctly that couture is probably a perpetual LTIR guy now, and burns took a step back this season in a way that has me wondering if father time is finally coming for him. anyway it's a bummer. and on that note

erik karlsson. god i can't root for the p*ns for it but i've been fond of him for so long! yet another man who has been in the wars. one of us, etc

claude giroux. because i've had to see that goddamn quote about how he thought he'd have plenty more chances at the cup back in 2010 and he's literally never even made it back to the final. good god man

john hock. i've enjoyed his work for years (he's actually the reason the flames ended up as one of my higher ranked sure i'll put that game on teams)

dylan larkin is only 27 but like. spiritually.

i would love for sam gagner to cap his baffling, delightful resume with a cup. but not this year.

roman josi. i was hardcore pulling for the preds the season they made the final 😭

yes i did go through every roster for this. yes i did find several old guys without cups where i was like, no i want him to stay that way.

BBC Big Read List

Many years ago, I first started tallying the books from the BBC Big Read list, seeing how my reading and interests correllate. I don't take it as the "one truth" on which books are worth reading or "good", I just find it interesting which ones I agree with. Let's go!

Read: 57 Want to read: 60

Some of the books to read I know very little about except the title and that they're classics, some others I know a lot about (and I even have "Men at Arms" on my TBR pile for when the mood strikes me next). I like reading classics once in a while, but especially older ones I can't read too often, I need to be in the right mood for that style of writing.

The last time I updated this was in 2015 and I had read 44 and wanted to read 72 - so 15 books in 9 years xD Like I said, it's not a challenge or a goal to read all of them, just a convenient way of keeping track of which classics I want to read eventually.

2024 MOVIE LIST

www.tumblr.com/theharpermovieblog

1980's COMEDY WEEK

I re-watched Vibes (1988)

Who amongst us can resist Cyndi Lauper?

Two people with Psychic powers are hired to find a lost city of gold in Ecuador, finding adventure and romance along the way.

Director Ken Kwapis May be familiar to people my age for directing "Dunston Checks In" and "The Beautician And The Beast". One of which is a garbage kid's movie and the other is exclusively for people who love Fran Drescher. Kwapis also directed "The Sisterhood Of The Traveling Pants" a legitimately good movie, which much like "Vibes", uses a talented cast to carry it across the finish line.

The reviews of "Vibes" are mostly bad. The overall Rotten Tomatoes score is very, very low. But, Im here to tell you that this one has gotten a bad wrap. This movie is legitimately funny. Not always hysterical, but I chuckled throughout, and it was a real easy watch. Maybe it's the 1980's nostalgia, maybe it's the laid back attitude that seems to run through the whole movie, maybe it's the fact that Jeff Goldblum, Cyndi Lauper and Peter Faulk are all elevating things with heaps of charisma and timing....whatever it is, it gave me a cozy feeling as I chuckled along.

I don't talk about a lot of romantic comedies. It's not a genre I particularly love or like or care about. But, if you throw a little adventure into a romantic comedy, maybe a little supernatural element, they start peaking my interest a little more. And, the 1980's experimented a lot with these three ideas. "Romancing The Stone" "The Man With Two Brains" "My Demon Lover" "Once Bitten" are 1980's romantic comedy movies that vary wildly in quality, but they all show that the 80's was willing to do weird things to put butts in seats, whether it be treasure hunting, demon possessed boyfriends, vampire love affairs or a man dating a brain in a jar. "Vibes" is one of those weird movies, and it's one of the better ones.

So if you're in the mood for something light, easy and that stars three great people who everyone loves...This is for you.
