hello, sorry about the (sometimes unattended) mess

I never placed Jane Wiedlin in Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure before, and yet there she is. She was, easily, my favorite Go-Go--though I like Belinda Carlisle a bit, too.

Since I'm admitting only slightly embarassing things here, I'll admit another: I paid box office money to see Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. At the time, I loved it too.

So there.

So, Sleepaway Camp. What a doozy!

IFC is still running its Grind House on Friday nights, and I happened to catch it then--thanks to TiVo, of course. Ended up finishing it during lunch a little while ago. Not only was that one shown, but David Cronenberg's Crash was tagged along with it. It's been a long time since I've seen it, and I have a feeling that I'll be just as disturbed by it now as I was then. I am unsure, however, if IFC choose to edit anything or ran it uncut--they typically don't edit that I can recall, though.

We ended up adding HBO to our DirecTV package and I was happy to see Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me was on. Sadly, it was on at one in the morning, but then TiVo took care of that problem as well.

Sundance had something called Spider Forest on the other evening--the first few minutes were intriguing, though vicious.
