WOW! Great message. You’re insanely close … you can add an “always available” toothpick in his ear and a torn-up paisley hanky in his pocket. He used to smoke Kool kings and Lucky Strike non-filters at the same time. Yes, AT THE SAME TIME. He’d take a couple hard pulls off the Lucky for the nicotine and then lean back and drag off the Kool for the menthol. Had a pack rolled under each sleeve. Ironically, the tobacco never took him … dementia did.

Beta did allow porn but not as much was put on Beta as it was on VHS. Also, Beta was already a dying thing by the early ‘80s because the player was $1000 instead of $300 like VHS, and only held 2 hours instead of the 4 hours of VHS.

Idk why this is getting downvoted. They aren't for everyone. Personally, I used to love a good mosh pit but there's nothing wrong with not liking them. There's not even anything wrong with not getting the appeal at all.

You're a good person. I saw the original and thought how cool it would be if someone restored it. I have no talent for such things. Cheers traveler! ♥️

That’s a pop with a loaded rifle stuffed btw the mattress and the headboard who smells like cigarettes coffee and whiskey. He has the most taunt skin over his arm muscles and when you’re too scared to fall asleep - hearing his boots hit the floor in the hallway always makes you feel safe.

Lol! By the time she had me she'd moved on to Virginia Slims and stayed brand loyal for decades. I remember all of the marketing around it - "You've come a long way, baby."

Betamax was superior in quality, but when it first hit the market, the platform had a 1 hour recording capacity- not enough to accommodate most full length movies. By the time they expanded it, VHS was already king.
