Just heard “how do you want it” by 2pac

Now if you wanna roll with me
Then here’s your chance
Doing 80 on the freeway
Police catch me if you can



With the speed limit on major highways almost everywhere 70-75 nowadays, 80 doesn’t seem as egregious as it did 30 years ago

If I should call you up, invest a dime...


I'm not old enough to remember a pay phone being 10 cents and anyone under 25 doesn't know what a pay phone even is.

It's no fun being an illegal alien.


Over the border
There lies the promised land
Where everything comes easy
You just hold out your hand

Operator, well could you help me place this call?
See, the number on the match book is old and faded

Fox on the run
You scream and everybody comes a-running
Take a run and hide yourself away
(Foxy on the run) F-foxy
Fox on the run and hide away

I used to be cruel to my woman
I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved

Aren't the Dead and Company doing a month-long residency at The Sphere in Las Vegas right now? Seems like the lyric is just as relevant today as it was when it was written. Don Henley still going strong with The Eagles, too.

I recently drove on many miles of interstates in WY, SD, and Iowa with 80 speed limits, Northern stretch of the Indian Nation Turnpike in OK is also 80.

It must have been some kind of painful to drive those roads at 55.

They drop to 65 now for construction zones.

I was listening to Notorious BIG's Going Back to Cali the other day and this in the intro made me laugh...

Come on now it's a quarter to six we got the 7:30 flight.

Waking up at 5:45 to make a 7:30 out of JFK...

Stepped on a pop top

15 may get you 20, but that’s alright

I can see that you’re 15 years old, but I don’t want your ID

Pretty much anything off Emenim’s first couple of albums. He had so many references to the entertainment culture of that time.
