You think *you've* got it rough? It's RAINING in LA for the first time since last spring! I'm going to have to take an umbrella to work! (How do we cope with this harsh climate out here?) ;-) Actually, I'm jealous y'all get a snow day. I get to play bumper cars on the way to work this morning. West coasters don't seem to quite understand how to drive in inclement weather, so I'll probably be taking my life into my hands on my morning commute today. Wish me luck! Keep warm everybody!

Well, Nick at Nite was rerunning The Wonder Years for awhile, and that started even later than Full House (though it was about the '60s and '70s, so it had some sort of nostalgia thing going for it).

(1) OK, I swear I'll just say this and shut up (sure, you will). Did anyone else ever have a copy of the record Strawberry Shortcake at the Big Apple Disco? Possibly the most disturbing recording I've ever owned, and I'm kicking myself cos I gave it away. Strawberry Shortcake and friends covering "Celebration" and "New York, New York," among other things, and then doing a little song called "Strawberry Rap" that went something like: Straw, straw, strawberry rap! Blue, blue, blueberry rap! Ras, ras, raspberry rap! . . . and on and on and on. It was truly horrible, and I think it's stuck in my memory forever.

I don't mind saying that I was, like, 14 when this show was on (the *original* show, before they got a new Gabby and replaced Rob with Hector) and I still watched it religiously and had some sort of crush on Rob. My brothers and I were constantly making fun of the whole Alex and Tina love story (with their first kiss inside a garbage truck, if I remember correctly: "At least we're together!") On more show: did anyone watch Flash Forward? It's on the Disney Channel now, but I think it might've been broadcast on Canadian TV first, or on ABC or something. One of the girls on it was also the "BAD SEED" in a lot of episodes of "Are You Afraid of the Dark" (again, the *original* show, before Tucker took over). And by the way, everyone, it's Sharon, Lois, and BRAM.

(A mailing list is a little different than a NG, but same basic premise.) To circumvent this frequent problem, we started a TMBG Offtopic mailing list. It's worked beautifully. Almost all of the posts on the TMBG.org mailing list have to do with TMBG, and if we notice them going too far OT, we refer people to the OT mailing list. The list is really great. There are certainly alot of TMBG references, but we generally babble about whatever. It's a lot of fun and a great atmosphere. If anyone's interested in starting a Fruvous Offtopic mailing list, I'd suggest you go to onelist.com and set up one (for free!), and then post info on how to join to the NG.
