Who the heck wrote these painful double entendres?
Elevated cock.
I'm not too cock-sure about that pun.
I believe there is now an Adult film with this title.
Such an innocent face on that pervert.
What a dramatic headline! More drama inside.
THE SETUP: In the fourth quarter of Super Bowl XVIII, the Redskins were trailing 17-13. Running back John Riggins, who had been carrying the team, tore off this 43-yard touchdown run, during which he discarded Dolphins cornerback Don McNeal like a dog shaking off water. The score put Washington ahead for good.
THE PAYOFF: The Redskins won 27-17, and Riggins had 166 yards on a grueling 38 carries, earning him Super Bowl MVP.
THE SETUP: Steve Young had existed in the shadow of Joe Montana up until Super Bowl XXIX. In that game, he threw six touchdowns and won MVP, putting himself in the shadow of no one. At the end of the game, he acknowledged the pressure he was feeling by going up to his teammates on the sidelines and telling them to take the monkey off his back.
THE PAYOFF: The monkey was off his back. After winning two Super Bowls as Montana's backup, Young now had a title of his own, with an MVP award to boot, and he would make the Hall of Fame in 2005 partly on the strength of that all-time-great performance.
The Force is strong with this one.
Two great TV tastes that are great together!

A reintroduction to the worst-slash-best soap opera you ever watched as a teen.

There are very few conditions under which the combination of rich people, poor people, dwarves, witches, Satanic possession, poison quiches, and Princess Diana make for a TV hit. Actually, nevermind. There's only one, and it's Passions, the NBC soap that was on the air for nearly 10 years — (1999-2008, RIP).
Passions, like most soap operas, was not good — it was over-acted, cast in soft lighting, and featured lines like, "I love your father and he loves me! I will never divorce him! Never!" All together, it was quite possibly one of the worst TV shows ever (although if you've ever seen Cop Rock, you might think otherwise). But there was something comic and intriguing about its tragic quality. Which is why when you mention Passions, even occasional watchers of a certain age will still go, "OMG! Timmy!" (More on him in a bit.)
For a show that spanned 2,231 episodes, we owe it to ourselves to revisit its weird greatness.

Passions combined the salacious doings of the residents of an idyllic town called "Harmony" with kooky supernatural conflicts — you know, your basic good against evil stuff except most of the players had chiseled features and "natural good looks" whatever that means. You probably remember the first season the most. That's when the show's more iconic plotlines took root. There was the rich Crane clan, ruled by a soulless father. You also had a number of diverse, middle-class families whose members were usually busy chasing tail, plotting a peer's demise, or battling the Cranes. Or trying to win their affection as in the case of Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald, a teen in love with the rich and handsome Crane son, Ethan. She was obsessed with him in a stalker-y way and hatched a plot to be around him in a convincing disguise. Her disguise was glasses. Somehow it kind of worked.
And then there was Tabitha, a 300-year old witch who became threatened by a pretty blonde teen named Charity who had mysterious powers and premonitions. She also went through a phase as "Zombie Charity."
But the show-stealers were really Tabitha and her sidekick Timmy, a former doll Tabitha brought to life. (Timmy, by the way, had a thing for martinis and spoke only in the third person.)
So, somehow, we managed to accept all of this. Even though it sounds as if the writers threw plot lines and/or random words and/or Magic The Game trading cards into a hat and drew randomly to create a script.
It was a match made is psychedelic Heaven. Surreal and melty, just watch you'd expect from Dali.

In 1969, a print run of Alice In Wonderland was released featuring the surreal illustrations of Salvador Dali. The book contained twelve heliogravures according to Brain Pickings, one for each chapter.
A heliogravure is one of the oldest ways to reproduced photographic images, involving an expensive, time-consuming process. You can read all about it over here. The decision to use this technique helped emphasize the lush colors Dali favored.
Only the cover of the was different, a sketched etching in muted tones.
Thanks to the William Bennett Gallery for preserving Dali's work in digital form!
