Yeah, I can hear the “Ki ki ki” after it was pointed out, but the second part still sounds like “Ha ha ha.”

Recycling the same story on a not quite yearly basis; not a surprise.

I celebrate every Friday The 13th with Commander USA’s retrospective of the first two and introduction to the third. Remember when Steve was worried about having enough paint?

Back in the ‘80’s Nashville had an annual downtown festival with music, food, and business booths. One year Commander USA was there. It was the only time I didn’t go. But my parents got me a fan club card which I still have.

And at least one of them wasn’t even a Friday the 13th

"Oh, all kinds of scary things going on in this one, boy!
Oh yeah, there’s, oh, look at this, uh, there’s motorcycle gangs, and, oh people knitting, dead car batteries, aww gee, whoa, whoa, every kind of thing you can imagine! It’s gonna be real scary!"

My favorite line is “Remember when Alice made the instant coffee?”
I’ve read elsewhere about that scene being there solely to extend the runtime.

His whole spiel is one great one liner after another! I debated transcribing the whole bit, but only those who decide to watch the awesomeness will be treated to it.

Not a fan of Friday the 13th unless it was at the drive in when I was still drinking and me and my girlfriend (wife) had a bottle of MD 20/20.
But, I am currently watching Jaws 2, it came on right after Jaws on AMC. Too many commercials though, I’ll be asleep before the big ending.
We never saw Bruce in the first Jaws because of technical difficulties. Not seeing the shark and the music was genius horror suspense.
Same thing with Friday The 13th.

Mad Dog (we got busted once by undercover Detroit cops for buying MD when we were in high school) and Richard’s Wild Irish Rose were interchangeable but for those special occasions…
Riunite on ice, that’s nice.
I want to go back 'Cause I’m feeling so much older But I can’t go back I know… Eddie Money

This is reminding me of the time a friend and I were in a bar and he asked if they had Cold Duck. The bartender said “I’ll bring you a Shirley Temple with vodka.”
