- The Muppets: Bohemian Rhapsody
Best use of the Beeker “meee” ever.
- Has Bell Invented the “Telegraph Killer”?

11:37 AM: Exercise: “Taxi Stomp” (alternating legs, for 30 blocks). Calories burned: 148,900,183. - Scenes From An Alternate Universe Where The Beatles Accepted Lorne Michaels’ Generous Offer
1983. The Beatles announce their first tour in thirteen years, but likewise announce that Michael Jackson will be going on tour with them as a one gigantic mega-concert event.

Excellent.
- Dead Fly Art
Flughumor!
