a hilarious comedy TV show about "nothing". It ran from 1990 to 1998. The main star was comedian Jerry Seinfeld, who is good at his profession. However Michael Richards, who starred as across-the-hall neighbor Cosmo Kramer was getting the lion's share of the applause and laughs until the show producers de-emphasized him in the 1996 - 1997 season, when the show's quality dropped and it just wasn't funny anymore. The series finale was sadistic and unfunny. Still, the first six seasons were great. TV hasn't been as much fun since that time.
Seinfeld comes on twice an evening on the local CW channel on week nights. Usually it's a major hoot.

The numerals spell it all. Zero economic opportunity after college, zero sence in the general public, cultural zeroes, zero understanding and tolerance, near zero entertainment, politicians with zero intelligence and zero scruples, hysteria, panic, hatred and witch hunt frenzy stirred up by political cretins and a sensationalistic zero IQ media (esp. TV news). It's the Decade of Duh.
1. 1999 turns into 1984 (the novel). Fanatics attack on 9/11 and a great panic ensues. Armchair warriors see war on TV 24/7. Fundie fanaticism (Christian and Muslim) flowers. Meanwhile the economy tanks and the U.S. Constitution is used as toilet paper. Talking heads on TV toss in trashy celebrity stories to distract viewers. This turns America into a Masturbation Nation.
2. Reality TV becomes the opiate of the masses.
3. Anybody who stands near a flag, pretends to pray in public, holds up a cross, talks of "family values" or boasts of kickin' ass is venerated by the masses.
NBC reporter: Mr. Bush, who is your favorite philosopher?
W: Uhhhh - Jesus Christ!
*BING*BING*BING*BING*BING*
4. Rock'n'roll is long dead by 2000. However, some newer bands that recently released albums like *Stella, Spinerette, the Plasticines, Datarock and the Ravionettes hint that rock may be coming back to life as this ugly decade ends. Lord I hope so.
5. Let's be honest. How many females have become famous for their intelligence or talents in anything during the past 10 years? Cross your legs, shake your ass, put on a seductive "fuck-me-honey" air about you. Then you're a star. It's the Decade of Dumb Ditzy Dolls. The Season of the Bitch. Whatever happened to gender equality and respect?
6.This nightmarish decade of lying, corruption, hate, arrogance, neglect and stupidity - the 00s - I AIN'T GONNA MISS IT. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

the home state of one of the greatest troubadours of rock'n'roll - Bruce Springsteen!
Also the state name is the name of a 1988 Bon Jovi album.

The first time I ever saw the Atlantic Ocean (and waded in it) was at Seaside Heights, New Jersey. I was 15 years old at the time.

That is a chant people sing between verses of the hit song from the 60s, "Mony Mony". Billy Idol covered the song and took it to #1 in 1987. The chant varies with geography.
I was in the Hard Rock Cafe in Montreal. Everybody was speaking French, I couldn't understand a word anybody was saying. Then, Billy Idol's version of Mony Mony was played by the DJ and within seconds the dance floor was packed. Billy sang "Here she comes down singing "Mony Mony" and the crowd sang the Canadian Mony Mony chant "Hey motherfucker, get laid, get fucked" in ENGLISH! Unbelievable.

Officially, Milli Vanilli was a techno-dance singing duo consisting of Rob Pilatus of Germany and Fabrice Morvan of France. They released one album in late 1988, "Girl You Know is True". From that period up to early 1990 it spawned five Top 10 hits - the title track, the #1 "Don't Forget My Number", the #1 "Girl I'm Gonna Miss You", the #1 "Blame It On the Rain" and entering the new decade with "All or Nothing". In early 1990, they were caught lip-synching "Blame It On the Rain" live on TV during a music awards show. The previous year the tape skipped during a "concert" that also revealed the duo's lip-synching. Allegations flew. Later in the year the duo said they wanted to do some real singing on their next album. They revealed to a music employee that all they did for the record was pose for the album cover and have the project credited to them under the name "Milli Vanilli". The shit really hit the fan after that. The duo's album sold multi-platinum but was soon deleted. They had to return their Grammy for Best New Group, the first time that ever happened. Milli Vanilli was disgraced in what is possibly the biggest sham in music history. Still, they were used in a Pepsi TV ad the following year, lip-synching to an opera record. A year later, they released an album under their real names, supposedly the vocals were the duo's own. It sank like a stone in a pond. Pilatus commited suicide in 1998. Fabrice is still living. The term "Milli Vanilli" now is used to denote fraud and fakery.
Since that time other performers like Madonna, Ashlee Simpson and Britney Spears have been caught lip-synching on stage. Not as much fuss has been made about any of that. Hmmmm. It's a damn shame that the Milli Vanilli story has come to what it is. Their first album has some really good songs on it, but they will never be released again and we probably never will hear them again because of the big scandal. There's some terrific music on it, it's just a shame that the wrong people got all the credit for it.

a loudmouth obnoxious clown featured on a local TV show on the cool cartoon strip and TV Saturday morning series Garfield. Garfield the fat cat, on his cartoon show hosts the feature "Screaming With Binky", where Binky is known to come up behind you and scream "HEYYYYY KID!!!!" or something like that, just to startle you. He comes up to a kid building a sand castle and screams at him, demolishing the sand castle. He comes up behind a diamond cutter, screams at him, disrupting his concentration and making him mess up his work. Garfield, ever so sarcastic, finds Binky annoying.
Garfield switches on the tube because it's time to watch the TV show hosted by the obnoxious Binky the Clown.
