    best TV show EVAR??

    Fuck the Wire, HOMOCIDE. No cop show in the last 25 years has had such a profound and lasting influence IMO. Andre Braugher has gotta be one of the most underappreciated actors of our era, and the lo-fi camera work was totally ahead ..and surprisingly no mentions of Deadwood yet, that is...

    Florida Funk

    There's 2 versions, Little Beaver's being the original. I think the only criticism i can really offer on Gerald's latest is that they didnt use that one instead. The Sam is nice, but they could've just put on both. a.

    Top 5 Pinball Machines

    Comet, Cyclone, and Hurricane as well right?? sort of a rollercoaster trilogy. Cyclone was the one Mr Bungle sampled I think. Side note, its really easy to get free credits on 8ts/9ts williams games by putting a shoe or some kind of padding in between the two coin slots and hitting it with a...
