Fantastic word game

Their minds at the POP are still trying to grasp having been blown last weekend after having attended a "Larger than Life" giant-screen showing at the Pendleton satellite of The Rolling Stones Live at the MAX.

Granted it was an 8-perf/70mm vertical-pull reduction of the original 15/70 horizontal IMAX strip (because that's all they're equipped to run over there) so it isn't *as* sharp as the larger version, but it's still capable of producing outstanding results. Even 8/70 still gives far higher-quality images when projected onto a screen of any considerable size than good old 4/35 (but that's pretty obvious).

It's too bad 70mm never really caught on as the "de facto" cinematic film standard. Sure beats this anamorphic 35mm crap we seem to have to live with.
 
Screech and all his friends from "Saved By The Bell" hung out together in high school and, oddly enough, most of them all went to the same college and all of this has unfortunately led to a continuing showbiz career for Mario Lopez.
 
Alumni from that show have starred in shows such as NYPD Blue, Beverly Hills 90210, and that cinematic masterpiece known as Showgirls.

Elizabeth Berkley did that, as I'm sure you all know. ::) I'd include a link to clip but it would probably get censored so never mind. ;D
 
Now that Ryan Seacrest is taking over in Times Square I will have even more reason to completely ignore his show and instead watch a marathon of The Twilight Zone.

That's been our family tradition for a bunch of years now although I may spend some time this year watching The Walking Dead marathon on AMC because it's such a great show!
 
Now that I think about it, I still have to finalize my New Year's Eve plans.

And they likely won't involve me sitting at home watching any type of TV show. :)
 
Television for background sound is occasionally how I fall asleep but usually it's with the radio on all night long.

My marathon of choice on Christmas Day was Game Show Network's Match Game Marathon. They played various episodes of the various incarnations starting with the original 60s version (which I missed, I wasn't awake yet); the 70s CBS version that everyone probably knows best (Match Game 73, 74, etc); the syndicated weekly Match Game PM; the daily syndicated version (79-82); the 1990-91 version hosted by Ross Shafer and the never before aired pilot of that version hosted by Bert Convy (Bert was supposed to host the series but became ill with a brain tumor and later died); and the 98-99 version hosted by Michael Burger which was horrible. Sadly, many of the regulars and even semi-regulars have passed on including Gene Rayburn, Johnny Olson, Brett Somers, Charles Nelson Reilly, Richard Dawson, McLean Stevenson and DebraLee Scott amongst others. It was still a great marathon though. On New Year's Day, they will have a Pyramid Marathon as a tribute to Dick Clark.
 
All Night Long was an 80s hit for Lionel Richie, though I personally much prefer Eddie Murphy's Party All The Time.

Party all the time if you want, but you still have to turn in your year-end compiled TPS Reports before the 29th, since New Year's Eve and New Year's Day are the FWG (or TFWG as some prefer) holidays, and even with the new digitalization we still like to allow one day for processing.
 
An additional fee of $4.95 will be charged to your payroll check if quad finds excessive mistakes on your TPS Reports.
 
Your TPS Reports must be handed in on time because it's in quad's contract that he doesn't have to work late on nights when Globe Trekker is airing on his local TV station.
