In 1992, SuperFly was 49 years old. Guessing he was past his prime. I loved SuperFly back in the day, never would have guessed he was 3 years older than my father.

Next week is another normal one - questions will go out on Memorial Day.

I think I may take signups to do W14 questions live though, so that would be next week too. Stay tuned.

Fucking Megamind... That movie was on while my son got his braces on. Painfully bad movie, hadn't heard of it before, and I really thought it was obscure enough that nobody would think of it. Guess it can't be too obscure if it stars Will Ferrell, but damn you all. And fuck Bengal for saying Susquahanna, I was worried it wasn't long enough, but my soccer career started on the banks of the Susquahanna, which often completely overtakes the entire park where the Town still holds rec games. And Tecmo Bowl kept me from saying Dave Duerson. He was so dominant, I tried to think of a guy who wasn't usable on that D.
