Video

Yesterday was the 25th anniversary of the release of Ghostbusters. The movie, made more than a year before I was even born, is my all-time favorite. I can watch it endlessly and a day doesn't go by where I don't quote the movie. Anyway, here is the original trailer. Enjoy.

That's all for me. Gametimelinks (at) gmail.com

I love ghostbusters too, but did you have to stick the knife in and turn with the before you were born comment?
That’s the year I graduated, from college.
I feel so OLD

Seriously?

That’s not even necessary. sigh

On an unrelated note, I want Mario’s wine cabinet. I don’t care about the house, but damn if I want that cellar.

Reporter: There`s a "stamp out the Beatles movement" underway in Detroit. What are you going to do about it?

Don't feel bad...

…if I had gone to college immediately after graduating from high school, I’d have graduated from college in 1983, which was the year I went into the Army.

Talk about a helpful review!

Things like this make my continuing to surf by worthwhile.
Thank you Answer Man!

Of course Eeej is marketable.

He’s young, articulate and tall. Oh, and I hear he used to be a real good scratch golfer.

And to add to the oldness of several, I guess . . . I was 3 when the first Ghostbusters movie was released. And yes, it’s one of my personal favorites, too. “Yes, it’s true. This man has no dick.”

Balsillie is like the annoying kid from childhood that won’t go away. Of course if the pens are anything to judge by, the Coyotes will be amazing in the next couple of years.

Is it just me, or do other people keep logging on, hoping to see they resigned Tkachuk and then get dissapointed when they don’t?

Barret Jackman is my hero.

Good, bad, I'm the guy with the gun.

Sort of. Except I’m here for the One Act Theatres.

I'm still partial to Office Space.

But Ghostbusters . . . definite Top Five.

By the way, it’s refreshing to know you Sharks fans still give Mr. K shit for his . . . ummm, “Overserved-ness” from Cinco de Mayo. That signature just cracks my shit up!
