Favorite Movie Quotes: The Lost Boys

"Look at your reflection in the mirror. You're a creature of the night, Michael. Just like out of a comic book. You're a vampire, Michael. My own brother, a shit-sucking vampire! Well, you wait 'til Mom finds out, buddy!"

The Millard Fillmore Song

Oh I love Millard Fillmore

He’s on the ball

He’s got the scoop

Oh I love Millard Fillmore

He’s so perfect

He doesn’t poop.

He’s got two eyes, a nose and a mouth

He bent over backwards to appease the South

Oh I love Millard Fillmore

Even though he was two inches shorter than Chester Alan Arthur

"Four miles of delightful bathing along the lagoon, enclosed by Recreation Park, is a paradise for those who prefer to swim in quiet waters. Then there are eight miles of gently slopping sand along the ocean beach, and the open sea for surf swimming, surf boarding and the thrilling sport of 'body surfing.'"

Morty Comix # 2621

Morty Comix # 2621 was placed in an empty display case attached to a gas pump in Butler, Pennsylvania. Residents of the western portion of the Keystone State can rest easy knowing this was the last Morty Comix I placed in a furtive manner in their part of the world (which I fell in love with, by the way). There is one more Pennsylvania-distributed Morty Comix to come, but it was proudly drawn in the open.

"Stadium, University of California Berkeley"

1920s-1940s

Apparently the stadium was built directly over a big earthquake fault. My cousins always warned me never to sit on the west side of the stadium if I ever went there for a game because I could wind up in the Pacific Ocean.
