Another Plot Device

Holy shit balls!  I got to continue with my so bad it’s good movie streak here and Masters of the Universe is just plain bad, but surprisingly a train wreck of a movie to be enjoyable in the Mystery Science Theater sense.  The trailer was just bringing up memories of terrible acting, wooden characters, shitty 80s special effects and a poor Flash Gordon-esque movie that is based on the He-Man toy property.  Its got everything I want in a bad movie that I just downright love it.

Ted Williams was born on this day in 1918.

Ten Notes On Ted Williams

1. Ted Williams was the greatest hitter who ever lived. He lived and breathed hitting. To the end of his life he was still talking about hitting. It was an obsession. He was a career .344 hitter. He hit 521 homer runs, 1838 career RBIs. Keep in mind he missed three years due to service in World War II. Those would have been three prime seasons. He also missed most of two seasons serving in the Korean War. If not for the wars who knows what his numbers would have been like. I have  no doubt he would have broke Babe Ruth’s career home run record.

2. To me Ted Williams is the most interesting baseball player ever. I loved to hear him talk about baseball or about anything. He was an interviewers dream. He was…

While I Know A Lot Of Y’all Have Seen The Flick…

“TOMBSTONE”

…I Also Know A Lot Of Y’all Have NEVER Seen The Flick…

“GUNFIGHT AT THE O.K. CORRAL”

Period.

And While I Hate To Draw Comparisons Between Flicks…

…It’s Almost Impossible Not To Do So In This Instance.

I Love Love LOVE…

“TOMBSTONE”

“GUNFIGHT AT THE O.K. CORRAL“

“THE BUG” Is My Absolute Favorite Track Off Of The 1991 Album “ON EVERY STREET” By DIRE STRAITS !!!

… … … … …

… … …

…

Honestly, My Peeps…

…I Can’t Take Credit For This Song Selection.

Nope.

For That, Y’all Have Got To Thank My Exceptional Friend…

Ms. RENEE

…From The Famous…

…Or Infamous…

http://rendezvouswithrenee.com/

😀

That Woman…

…I Swear…

…She Get’s My Mind Working In Many Different Ways.

Lucky For Y’all…

…Today My Focus Is THIS Song…

“THE BUG“

by DIRE STRAITS

!!! !!!! !!!

🙂

T’Is A Personal Favorite Jam I’d Not Listened To In Many A Moon.

Hell, I’d Forgotten I Even Had This Album In The Ole Collection Until She Posted This Song To Her Facebook Page, Yesterday.

I Think…

…Since Hearing It Again, Yesterday…

…I’ve Likely Listened To It…

…Ohhh…

…I Dunno…

…20…

…Perhaps…

…25 Times.

(teehehehe)

No Foolies, Kids.

No Foolies, Indeed.

I Was Going To Label This Piece As An Entry Into My…

“The Song Stuck In My Head”

…Series.

BUT…

…Even Though It IS Stuck In My Head…

…I Felt This One Was Much More Deserving Of The Newer…

“A Song To Make ANYONE Smile”

…Label.

Ms. RENEE

…Has The Power To ALWAYS Make Me Smile.

When I’m Sick?

Yep.

She’s On The Phone Checking-In On Me.

When I’m Depressed?

Yep.

She’s There.

When I’m Being Playful And/Or Goofy?

You Can Almost Bet She’s Involved Somewhere In The Mix.

So…

…I Figured Since This Is The Way I Best Express Myself…

…I’d Just Do-Up A Quickie Post With HER And THIS SONG In Mind.

I’ve ALWAYS Been A Fan Of…

DIRE STRAITS

…And Likely Always Will Be.

I’ve Mentioned This Before…

…But I STILL Have My…

“DIRE STRAITS: THE VIDEOS COLLECTION“

…On Friggin’ LASER-DISC!!!

Once Again…

…No Foolies, Kids.

And…

…In-Case You Were Wondering…

…Yes…

…That Fact Remains A Point Of Geeky Pride For Me.

I’ve Still Got Some Rather AMAZING Titles In That Little Collection.

I Love The Laser-Disc Player.

😉

ANYWAY…

…Back To What I Was Sayin’…

Ms. RENEEE

…Is VERY Good People.

So Why Not Dedicate A Song To Her?

That’s How We Used To Do It Back In The Day.

If You Wanted To Express Yourself To Someone…

…You Called Up The Local Radio-Station And Put In A Request With The DJ For A Song Dedication.

Since She And I Don’t Listen To The Same Radio-Station, A Dedication Of That Sort Would Be Rather Pointless.

SO…

…I’m Dialing-Up Myself…

…And Putting In My Own Sort Of Dedication.

That’s Cool, Right?!

AWESOME OPOSSUM!!!

I Kinda Figured Y’all Would Have My Back On This One.

Now…

…I Know A Bundle Of Folks Who Sincerely DO NOT LIKE THIS SONG.

Period.

“THE BUG“

…Is One Of Those Songs Where The Band…

DIRE STRAITS

…Was Starting To Slip More Into A Country’ish-Pop’ish-Rock’ish Sound With Their Music.

Not Totally.

Not Completely.

But Nevertheless It Was Happening.

Then…

…As It Turned-Out…

“ON EVERY STREET“

…Was The Final Album They Would Release.

That Was Very Much A Bummer, My Peeps.

:*(

“THE BUG“

…Remains A Classic Favorite From…

DIRE STRAITS

…And The Album…

“ON EVERY STREET“

…Does Have A Very Secure Place Within My Collection.

So I Feel Pretty Good About This Little Dedication.

Thank You For Being Such A Good, Fun Person…

Ms. RENEE

!!! !!!! !!!

T’Is So Very Much Appreciated.

And I Hope You…

…And Y’all…

…Enjoyed This One.

🙂

I DID.
