Candy

 I don't watch college football but came across this disquisition on Halloween candy and European v American candy by Mississippi State coach Mike Leach.  Much better than the usual postgame coach comments.  Apparently, he is quite a character.  (Courtesy of Super 70s Sports, the most entertaining account on Twitter.)


And while we are in the subject of candy let's go back to the 80s for a little Cameo.


And how about Paul McCartney's collaboration with Elvis Costello?

Monday Morning Word Up Call

"If there's music we can use it, we need to dance
We don't have no time for psychological romance"
 It hit #6 on the Billboard singles chart in 1986.  Word Up was the first Top 40 hit for Cameo.  Added bonus is the sampling of Enni Morricone's theme from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly.  Oh, and you've got Levar Burton playing the detective in the video.  Good hair.

And props to lead singer Larry Blackmon for bringing back the codpiece as a fashion statement!
