Locked in the Trunk of a Car - The Tragically Hip

 

[nwhoopfan]

I'm gonna go ahead and guess there are more songs about Cadillacs than any other type of car.

 

[meyers7]

Geez, can't believe I didn't start with this one.

Cars - Gary Numan

and youse knew that this was coming, amiright?
robert mitchum, another Bridgeport, Connecticut guy. sumdays, i kinda feel sorry for the rest of the planet since they have to face this life woefully unequipped. lol.

'As a child, Mitchum was known as a prankster, often involved in fistfights and mischief. When he was 12, his mother sent him to live with her parents in Felton, Delaware; the boy was promptly expelled from middle school for scuffling with the principal. A year later, in 1930, he moved in with his older sister Annette, in New York's Hell's Kitchen. After being expelled from Haaren High School, he left his sister and traveled throughout the country, hopping on railroad cars, taking a number of jobs, including ditch-digging for the Civilian Conservation Corps and professional boxing. At age 14 in Savannah, Georgia, he said he was arrested for vagrancy and put on a local chain gang.' wiki.
meh, no problem. 12 years in Bport is more than enuf time to learn how it be.
i wonder if he and julius boros were pals? prolly boxed a bit at the 'Pyramid Mosque' roller arena when they weren't skating.

"Now where in the city can that boy be"....?

 

[nwhoopfan]

Did I mention I've been waiting for one of these threads? I guess I could've started one, but I didn't want to be the first.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Doh! Shoulda thought of this one right away.
