The Cowboys Need a Miracle (Local team broadcaster)

 I present to you, the greatest moments in D/FW history during my lifetime. I plan to flesh out the descriptions as time permits, so if it's skimpy now, check back later it might be even better than the first time you read it.... ★ 1975 NFL Divisional Championship Game ★ Dallas Cowboys vs. Minnesota Vikings  Metropolitan Stadium, Minneapolis Minnesota   December 28th, 1975  Here's the grim, hopeless setup. Dallas Cowboys at the frozen ass Minnesota Metropolitan Stadium (hey I have a great Idea, let's put an outdoor stadium that will be used in the heart of the Minnesota weather in Minneapolis). They have unbelievably just converted a 4th and 26. (This brings up one of the most insane NFL incidents of all time, and it is NEVER talked about. I of course speak of the 'Rib Kicking' Minnesota Security Guard/Policeman. In completing the above-mentioned 4th and 26, Drew Pearson used some Toe Drag Swag to make an unbelievable catch with both feet in bounds, falling...

When You Are The Savior of 2020, They'll Mint Coins In Your Honor...

 Ladies and gentlemen, from the Australian Royal Mint, in honor of their local boys, ya know, saving all of civilization, I give you the AC/DC 20c piece(s)...

"We're just a Rock N Roll Band, it's what we do..." Local Australian Band

Through the blackest still of the night, where all hope seems to have vanished in a toxic stew of Politico's, morons, and general shittyness, out of nowhere, a ray of bright shining light can be seen at the far horizon. Leave it to the Thunder From Down Under to kick the fucking door down, take 2020 by the balls and say ok, bub enough is enough. From this point on, the trend is reversed, hope is attainable, people are civilized, and viri will be squelched. So remember, next year, when you are living life again, it all started with the dirty deeds of the best Rock N Roll band of all time. Oi, Oi, Oi, Oi!!!!!   

2020 huh? How'd That Work Out For Ya?

 So here I was last January posting my semi annual placeholder so the timecannon doesn't "go the way of the DoDo Bird"(there's a reference .093 percent of my audience will understand), and little did I know what a FUN year was waiting for us all.  So here i am, with my (albeit early) semi annual DoDo bird analogy. But lets pretend 2021 is going to be better. Wanna?  Ok,You heard it here first 2021 is so gonna kick 2020's ass, and Nostra-bacon-us was the first to tell you. Carry on citizen....

Dating Tip #238: Find A Computer Demo Center : " The Atari 800, with its 1.79MHZ 8 bit processor, was manufactured from 1979 until 1982 when the 1200XL took its place. Of course, the upgraded machine was considered a 'bomb,' says the Atari Museum , because it didn't have any expansion slots, an external bus connector and featured only 2 of the 4 controller ports users got with the 800 — which of course makes the 800 the ultimate console for double dates. I'm sure Leonardo DiCaprio will cover this in the Atari movie .
