It is a burden being at 8-16 hours ahead of the Western World.
<80's flashback> "Wes-tern girl." </80's flashback>
Who sung that? Damn, now it's stuck in my head. It's the curse of being so far in the future!

Eh, cheese takes time to fully ferment. Hell, I pumped all kinds of funky stuff through my Walkman while rollerskating the streets in the 80's. Much of it now would cheese me out.
Having said that, while getting some work done in a local coffee shop last night, I got a kick out of the Hall and Oates CD they were playing. Dem bones, dey gettin' old!

Let this be the one and only time Hall and Oates is ever mentioned on this board...

Really? I thought the West End Girls was like only their second official single after "Opportunities"... (I remember their was a first single which was released as a bootleg - can't remember the name off hand) This is really a surprise if it is true but seems PSB is way later than Grand Master Flash.
I thought those early block parties were juggling and sampling old funk breaks and electronica, like Africa Bambaata using Kraftwerk.
Sorry, back to toys...
