@tonyrichards4 I was there for that one

April 11th, 1982 Roanoke Civic Center NWA Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling, Roanoke, Virginia

@itsrosesm Carbon

I want a different name for a black cat, not Midnight, Shadow, Luna, Jinx, or Salem🤔

@amyjohsonwh A

President Trump just dropped a bold plan: slashing foreign aid by 75%, cutting the State Department’s budget in half, and completely zeroing out funding for the United Nations plus over 20 other international organizations. Do you Support This? A. Strongly support B. Do not support

@TheCinesthetic Brewster’s Millions

What’s a movie you’ve rewatched countless times that isn’t a blockbuster, franchise film, or major awards contender?

@MidAtlanticPod I was at the Bluefield event mentioned here.

April 12, 1980: TONIGHT, KINGSPORT. Blackjack Mulligan, Ric Flair and Jim Crockett Jr have taken over Knoxville. With old pros like Les Thatcher and Johnny Weaver on board to help, Rich Landrum runs down a few shows before The Masked Superstar and Superstar II (Big John Studd) join him to issue a warning to Mulligan and Andre The Giant prior to their battle at Dobyns Bennett.

@JVMonte2 Motley Crue’s Girls, Girls, Girls

What was the FIRST album that you purchased or received that was a COMPACT DISC?

@WorkElizab Sgt York

🤔🤔

@uscfan981 The number one team of all time was the original Minnesota Wrecking Crew (Gene & Ole Anderson) and the second is Ray Stevens & Pat Patterson. EVERYONE else falls beneath them. Steiners are top 5 but the Road Warriors don’t even make the top 10 for actual work rate. All gimmick

Who do you say?

@saylordocs Hmmm, yeah, living on $3.35 an hr minimum wage was so easy in 1984. SMDH. I can clearly remember $200 a week after tax paydays, on salary, working 55 hrs a week. Had a roommate, but had rent and car payments and ins. Didn’t have a cel phone, internet bills, or cable/satellite bil

Older generations say “we all struggled in our 20s.” No, you didn’t. You didn’t pay $3200 for rent and $10 for eggs. You didn’t graduate into $50K student debt and $0 job security. Gen Z isn’t dramatic. They’re drowning.

Everything I know about fighting lizard men I owe to William Shatner.

We are not “disappointed.” We are not “frustrated.” We are beyond fucking furious, and the American body politic has crossed the Rubicon of tolerance where Europe is concerned. Harold is right, and the Europeans still don’t grasp the depth of the pathology they have triggered. This is not another policy spat. This is the visceral, cellular recognition of betrayal by a dependent class that has spent eighty years castrating its own martial spirit while hiding behind the American shield. You are not allies. You are eunuchs who mastered only one art form with true excellence: surrender. From the Munich Agreement to Vichy, from the Suez capitulation to the modern ritual of groveling before every energy autocrat who offers discounted gas in exchange for moral emasculation, Europe has perfected the psychology of the freeloader. You outsource your defense, your spine, and your sovereignty to Washington, then lecture us on restraint the moment our blood and treasure are required to keep the Strait of Hormuz open after your Iranian “partners” tried to choke the global economy. Decades of strategic infantilization have produced a continent-wide neurosis: an addictive dependency on American power coupled with a compensatory sneer of cultural superiority. The moment we demanded you put steel in the water and actual skin in the game...after you spent years hollowing out your own militaries to fund your green fantasies and welfare states...you reverted to type. You offered press releases. You offered “coalition talks.” You offered every elegant euphemism for cowardice while we and the Israelis reopened the artery you were perfectly willing to let bleed out. That is not diplomacy. That is the final, grotesque manifestation of a civilizational castration complex. We see you now with lethal clarity. The mask is gone. The “rules-based international order” you preach was always a one-way subsidy funded by American taxpayers and American lives. You are not partners. You are parasites with excellent table manners. And the American people...red, blue, left, right...are finished subsidizing your decadence while you posture as morally evolved. The economic and military consequences you have invited are not threats; they are the cold, precise mathematics of a betrayed superpower that has finally remembered it owes you nothing. We are over it.
 We are done carrying the continent that taught the world how to lose wars with style. The bill is coming. And this time, the eunuchs will pay it in full. 💀⚖️🗡️🪖

@tonyrichards4 Sorry to hear this. Good luck

So just to let everyone know my Facebook and Instagram accounts have been suspended including the Pro Wrestling Time Tunnel Facebook Group. So I’ve submitted an appeal and I’ll wait to hear back but until then I’m sans FB and Insta.

@Hot_Pepper76 I was in a record store in late 80s buying a Jimmy Hendrix album and the clerk recommended Living Colour to me. The was blown away. Sad they didn’t make more music than they did. Vernon Reid was great.

What band or artist did you discover completely by accident (maybe on the radio, a mixtape, or flipping channels) that ended up becoming one of your all-time favorites?

From Martin Iles, reposted: Having lived in the USA for nearly two years, I've realised something. The USA and the remainder of the Western world are no longer aligned. We all laugh and mock when the Americans say, "Freedom!" because we truly think we're as free as they are. Wrong. We're not. Not even close. The laws, the mindset, and the behaviour, is totally different in this regard. Most of all, the governments are totally different. The USA's convictions around core freedoms are on a scale we do not share. Meanwhile, Donald Trump wins the popular vote, the electoral college, the House, and the Senate... a man who, in every other Western country, is held in open derision, if not contempt. For these and other reasons, we are not the same. Yet the West, including Australia, fully expect to rely on the USA for our very survival. If the world turns bad (which will happen - only a question of time), then the whole West, without America, is toast. So, you may ask - if we're not very aligned ideologically, then it must be that we bring something to the party militarily? Well, no... actually... we don't matter that much militarily. The USA has about 470 ships in its navy, including 11 aircraft carriers, 69 submarines, 75 destroyers... plus 110 new ships in the pipeline. Australia has about 30, including 3 destroyers, 7 frigates and 7 outdated submarines. The UK does a little better, with about 60. Meanwhile, the US has over 14,000 military aircraft. A staggering number. Australia has 252 military aircraft. The UK has 556. The US army has just shy of 1,000,000 uniformed personnel in its military. Australia has about 45,000. The USA spends 3.4% ($968 billion) of its GDP on defence. Australia spends 2% ($36.4 billion). The US spends as much as the next 15 largest military-spending countries (including China) combined. The USA has a fighting culture. The men shoot things (a lot) and hunt things, the veterans get favoured in everything from parking spots to boarding planes. A uniformed young man is thanked in the street a dozen times a day. "Oh, the Americans and their guns!" we say, in our smug way. Yes, they have a warrior culture. We do not. We don't have to, because we're a leech on theirs. How many young British men are willing to fight for their country? Now ask the same regarding young American men. The difference is about as wide as it could be. Militarily, we don't offer squat. Meanwhile, look at the way Australia works against America's interests by loving on China. China made us rich and we stay close. This is a Marxist regime with expansionist aims. Again, you have to spend time in the USA to realise just how vast a gulf there is between us on China. Europe, too. They let China have their way everywhere from Germany to Greenland, all the while importing Islam and sending their own people to court for saying hurty words. Somehow, we have landed the deal of a lifetime with the USA that says, "when the baddies come, you'll save us ok?" Because we can't save ourselves. And we live in peace. But we keep gnawing away at freedoms, keep enabling China, and get flabby and disinterested about our military because Uncle Sam's got it. And, let's be honest, Americans are widely looked down on. To add insult to injury, we don't think that highly of our protectors. So, the USA is finally saying "enough." I am here, I can tell you what the vibe is, and that's it. Trump is doing what people want in this regard. They're over it. And we come across all shocked and hard done by. We behave like people with no self-insight at all. Yes, the global alliance system is all over the place now. From America's perspective, it's about time. And I must say, though I be a proud Australian, I am forced to agree. Something has to change.

@tonyrichards4 Agree

After reading my feature on Johnny Valiant and the Valiant Brothers today in The Daily Chronicle, one of my regular readers, Pat Crocker, suggested The Valiant Brothers, because of their 1973-1975 run in the WWWF might have been the first “cool heels”. What do you think? If not them, then who?

I came across this little gem of everyone's favorite  Jeannie,Barbara Eden getting her groove on to KC and the Sunshine Bands "Boogie Shoes"... Pure '70s gold...🕺🎶💃

If you believe how a man speaks, dresses, and carries himself still matters….this is one of the best accounts on X. Highly recommend following.

@m_takewaka Yep. Lived in Okinawa in 80s while in USMC and been to Tokyo. I absolutely loved Okinawa and have said many times I should’ve extended my tour to stay there another year.

Dear American friends, Have you ever been to Japan? Or would you like to come to Japan? If you were able to come to Japan, where would you like to go and what would you like to do?

@GamewithDave I still play Age of Empires and Rise of Nations

For those who used a computer between 1995 and 2001, what's the computer game from that time that sticks with you the most, and why?
