As a kid I always thought Casey was a little creepy-sounding for some reason, but I check in on this sometimes. Some good songs you don't hear anymore.

These are called bear claw pedals, and that's exactly what they felt like.

I guess the only year that mattered was 1980?

I was like wait a minute, I'm not that close to 50.

I think the mid-80s was peak. I look back on the early 1990s and remember it as the salad days but that was the beginning of the downward cultural spiral.

It is more frightening that I have been on airplanes in the last decade that had the ash trays on the seat welded shut.

I saw that the original Incredible Hulk TV series was on Tubi so I watched the first couple of episodes. I kind of remember it, a green Ferrigno and the cheesy piano music, but don't remember any specific episodes or anything.

You know what, for being a 70s TV show with a tiny budget, it really wasn't as bad as I thought. I'm sure it went wheels-off after a while like most series do, but they at least gave it a decent effort. for what they had to work with.
