Didn't Jameson Parker have the worst porn star moustache in that movie? What are the odds we would have a Prince of Darkness movie reference today?

I'm just not evil enough to lose this evil back on the world. (I'm like Jameson Parker in that John Carpenter movie where they had Satan trapped in a jar in the basement of that church.) http://www.flickr.com/photos/djaysnider/3076085976/ Not that I could still fit in it, but on the other hand, I can’t pawn it off on the AmVets or Goodwill either.

That's when my addiction to the crack cocaine of appetizers began. You were probably my dealer you magnificent bastard! Send me a photo of the hat and shirt and I'll do a post on it! I think we should have the Seven Dead Flamingos release party at Buffalouie's, for it represents all that was once good in America and can be again. Or was that the Field of Dreams. Anyway, you've earned a spot in our soon to be unveiled Citizens Hall of Fame! Jeff Darrin,

The late 80’s? That’s when my addiction to the crack cocaine of appetizers began. You were probably my dealer you magnificent bastard!

I was at the original store on 17th St. back in the late 80's when "Mr. and Mrs. Louie" were still around and running things. I even still have my fashionable flourescent green T-shirt and health-department-mandated baseball cap, which are probably collectors items now. Man, we need to road trip. It's been over a decade since I last visited the alma mater. Yes, they were indeed.

So "Eau de IU" would have to be new car smell, mixed with bus exhaust fumes, buffalo sauce, fresh-baked sub bread, bleach from the dish sink, and the telltale scent of $@*%& fryer grease I dumped all down my pants while changing the filter. Ahhh, I'm gettin' all misty just thinkin' about it.
