80′s CLASSIC! Pretty in Pink on DVD $5

prettyinpinkI love me some Pretty in Pink! Remember when that girl shook her dandruff out of her hair to create snow on her homework? Well this isn’t that movie. Remember when that guy fell in love with a mannequin? Nope not that movie either. This movie is the one with the lovable, adorable Duckie. Where the girl wants the guy but thinks shes too good for the guy. Yep – this is that movie!

Pretty but poor, Andie’s (Molly Ringwald) a good student who develops a crush on Blane (Andrew McCarthy), the sensitive, well-born preppie. But Blane runs with a fast crowd of haughty rich kids, the kind of clique Andie and her new wavy best friend Duckie (Jon Cryer) can’t stand. Going against her fretting father (Harry Dean Stanton), peer pressure and social expectations, she decides to date him. But their big plans for the senior prom ultimately fall apart when Blane heeds his friend Steff’s (James Spader) warning to “quit slumming.” Will Blane find the courage to claim what he really wants and give up the so-called friends he doesn’t need?

This classic 1980s teen film from the master of the genre, writer-producer John Hughes features plenty of great ’80s pop tunes from the Psychedelic Furs, The Smiths, Echo and The Bunnymen, New Order, and more. The continued success of Hughes’ films and actors ushered in the era of the “brat pack” and teen films as pop culture.

 

Check out this cheese! Love me some computers in the 80′s! This is hilarious.

    Starbucks to Start Offering Value Meals!

    starbucksFollowing in McDonalds footsteps are we? I guess with this economy all options are open and this one brings a big smile to my face and bank account.

    Starbucks is set to offer value meals, or as Chief Executive Howard Schultz calls it ”several breakfast pairings” at “attractive” prices.

    More details are expected as early as later this week.

    I raise my coffee mug to you Starbucks.  McDonalds has nothing on you. Lower your prices and stay afloat while you still have a loyal following!

    drinkMORTAL PERIL ELECTRONIC DRINKING GAME – $5 from Shnoop.com
    Get your drink on! Perfect for your niece or nephew in college, or for those late Friday nights when you have nothing else better to do.. kids are asleep, infomericials have been playing for hours… pull our your mortal peril electronic drinking game, slam a few back and you’ll be out in no time!

    Drinking Game For Less Then The Price Of A Drink!!!

    This game is called mortal-peril for a good reason. You spin the electronic wheel and await your drinking decision. There are a number of outcomes: drink, miss a go(turn), don’t drink or drink twice! It all depends on the luck (or unluckiness) of the draw. While mortal peril is a fantastic drinking game on its own, it can readily enhance other drinking games as well. Any game, such as movie games or card games, where you take a shot for whatever reason, is a prime candidate. Instead of taking a shot, the person who’s turn it is to drink spins the mortal-peril wheel to decide their fate. This will add a whole new dimension of excitement and fun to your party games. Comes complete with electronic game board and four shot glasses. Pick one up today for great party fun at your next shindig.

    Around and around it goes, where it stops nobody knows! A more exciting twist on the “spin the bottle” type drinking game, you just put two fingers on the silver pads, and the lights will flash on and off as the music pulses “thump thump…thump thump”. Then, watch as the red dot spins quickly around, and then slower and slower around the wheel of destiny until it stops on your fate. Will it be one shot, two shots, reverse, pass, or something else? Whatever the outcome, fun is guaranteed! A great party game for 2 or more adults, includes batteries and 4 shot glasses.
