Watched "9 to 5" on a plane a few months ago. He was great. Didn't realize the plot shifts into a "Tom & Jerry" cartoon in the final act.

Cinderella doesn't bother me at all. Far from the worst name.

Re: Heart is headlining arenas????

I think a lot of acts and promoters figured out a secret. You can book a venue above your means and make your tour feel like a bigger deal than it would be otherwise. (See: Crue/Def Leppard/Poison.) Heart has a bit of built-up demand by reuniting after a few years off, so that helps. But I just don...

McDonald's changed their ingredients for fries in the early 1990s.

Not a fan of his style, but always heard about him because I lived in Chicago during the '90s.

He supposedly turned down points on the Nirvana album. Felt it was unethical to "take" money from a band in that manner. You gotta respect that.

In theory, a lot of Americans could improve their diets by sticking to three meals a day - even McDonald's meals - and not grazing all day long, which so many do.
