He was also responsible for my only memory of an 8-track player. We were in the Trans Am listening to AC/DC (I think) and when the tape got to the end, he said "well dont need that no more" and threw it out the window. So for years I thought 8-tracks were single use tapes.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

Actually I’m sure I’ve seen PCU at least a dozen times in smallish increments, given that is was on Comedy Central pretty much constantly from the years 1996-1998
