Remember the scene in Back to the Future (1985) when Marty McFly and his band, The Pinheads, audition for the school dance?

Marty launches into a wild guitar solo. The judges look thoroughly unimpressed.

Then one of them picks up a megaphone and announces that the band is simply too loud.

But take another look at the man holding that megaphone.

It's Huey Lewis!

Yes, the very same Huey Lewis whose band recorded “The Power of Love” for the movie!

And here's what makes the scene even funnier.

The song Marty's band is playing is actually a hard-rock version of “The Power of Love.”

In other words, Huey Lewis is sitting there rejecting a band for playing his own song!

The movie also featured another Huey Lewis and the News recording, “Back in Time.”

And there's one more little twist: when the audition scene was being prepared, “The Power of Love” hadn't even been finished yet. The filmmakers had an instrumental track to work with, and Marty gets cut off before he can sing.

It's one of those wonderful Hollywood inside jokes hiding in plain sight.

I've watched Back to the Future more times than I can count, and I never realized who that judge was!

 

 

 

 

Jim Nabors spent five seasons on television as the lovable but bumbling Private Gomer Pyle.

The U.S. Marine Corps took note of the positive light the series cast on the service.

In 2001, the Corps made Nabors an honorary Marine and promoted him to honorary Lance Corporal.

Six years later, in 2007, he was promoted again—to honorary Corporal—in a ceremony recognizing his contribution to the Marine Corps’ public image.

Exciting day. I saw a HexClad pan advertised on X. I need a new pan anyway.
It's a 10" pan like the one I use, but it doesn't have slopey sides like mine that turn it into a 7 or 8" pan, they're straight uppy-downy.
Not good when I have company on the weekend. OK during the week. Two hamburger patties vs. three, maybe an extra piece of fried chicken or two would be good also.
$179 + S&H + tax [~$200]. Excuse me? I've paid less for cars.
Found one like it on Amazon for $28. If it's a total piece of crap, at least I'll be able to see if the size works out.

Got a 4-pack of NiMH batteries for my cordless phones, $10 and some suction cups I need for $2.

The Deal O' the Day was on a pair of shoes I bought a couple months ago for $80. $23 off. It's the first decent shoes [XW] I've had in 20 years.
I'll keep them in reserve for funerals or a replacement if I live long enough, with my funeral jeans and funeral shirt.
Big day. Big spender, less than $100.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I've never milked a person, let alone two.

 

In FW that would be burmese.

 

I tried that as a kid. I didn't do the starter crystals. Got dirty sugar water.

Case #483

The London Hammer: A Mystery Buried in Stone

Discovered in Texas, in 1936, the London Hammer was embedded in a limy rock concretion originating from the Cretacious rock formation 400 million years ago! The 6-inch-long hammerhead consists of 96.6% iron and has not rusted since its discovery!

Was it simply a modern hammer trapped by natural geological processes? Or could it be evidence of a forgotten chapter of human history that we have yet to fully understand?

Decades later, the London Hammer continues to fuel debate among skeptics, researchers, and mystery enthusiasts. While explanations exist, not everyone is convinced the story is completely settled.

One thing is certain: the London Hammer remains one of the most fascinating artifacts ever to challenge our assumptions about the past.

What do you think... unexplained mystery or misunderstood discovery?

Daisy looks a lot like my ex-wife, but she's smart.

every morning when I wake up, I have to make my bed, damned IKEA furniture. This morning when I woke up and the bed was full of stir fry, sometimes I sleep wok.

who is the stand-up? some more would be okay.
