I can't be the first one to make the "electric bugger-loo" comment, can I?

Given the proposed PIRATE TIME acronym, might we call this side passage in The Mineshaft the Sword Fight?

It's heartening to know that I'm not the only one who immediately appends "Electric Bugaloo" to any phrase "X 2." And what a great movie. Parachute pants, crazy walls that had been "tagged," the whole nine yards.

Huh. Then that really does describe when Tommy and I get together.

Just to be accurate, the movie was "Electric Boogaloo." I made it "bugg" just for Labs, who didn't take it as far as he normally does.

One time a friend sent around an e-mail that appended 'Electric Boogaloo' to something in the subject line.

I asked what 'Electric Boogaloo' was.

He said that I made him feel old.

A coworker the other day didn't remember Mr. Greenjeans. Or the Chicken Lady from Kids in the Hall. Or the Kids in the Hall.

I'm gonna go buy an HDTV today so Armsmasher will have some way to amuse himself around the house without too much Buggaloo breaking out. When our house is fully operational, it will be the ultimate football-watching facility in the galaxy. Such, at least, are my aspirations.

What's Mr. Greenjeans, Chopper?

(Methinks it's a good thing I can't find the key to my fourth-dimensional mailbox.)

I think Mr. Greenjeans hails from Captain Kangaroo.

I don't even want to find out how many people can identify "Mistakes were made" without Googling....
