Can you believe it? This lil blog turned SEVENTEEN?!
There's really no good pop culture reference to "17." Nothing good, anyway. That Sesame Street image is the best we're gonna get.
17 is such a weird age, it's like it doesn't even count. You passed the Sweet 16, and you're not a legal adult until you turn 18. You're just a junior in High School and frankly, that's a year of my life I don't want to revisit.
As for what I've been up to since I last posted...not much. We saw Kendrick's diss track to Drake earn multiple Grammys and sung in front of the whole world at the Super Bowl, for one.
SNL had its 50th anniversary special
The world lost a few people, like Michelle Trachtenberg, Roberta Flack, Gene Hackman (the jury is still out on HOW he died. It's sad enough that he passed at 95), and just today Kingda Ka.
Man, just like the ride itself, it was over in about ten seconds. I only got one ride on it, and frankly that was enough. It also marks the end of the drop tower that was attached to it, Zumanjaro. The view at the top was incredible, and again, I only managed to ride it once.
And of course, we lost Lynne Marie Stewart.
Miss Yvonne from Pee-Wee's Playhouse! Decades in show business and she's one of those people I've never heard a bad word about. She'd been nothing but warm, sweet, and hilarious.
Pictured above is a signed pic I snagged off eBay the moment I heard the news. It was only a matter of days when other signed pics were taken off and relisted for double the price. Bastards.
And while I was there, I picked up this signed pic of Kurtwood Smith.
This was much cheaper, mostly because
1) He's still alive
and 2) Coming out to defend Danny Masterson really reduced the demand on his stuff. Don't think I paid more than $20 before all the fees and stuff.
And my mind was blown when I learned that Lynne Marie Stewart also played Mrs. Kelly on It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.
The show won't be the same without her, and I know she's gonna be in the upcoming season. It's gonna be tough when we see the "in memory of" dedication.
So farewell to the most beautiful woman in Puppet Land, and farewell February. Let's hope March is better.
