Did someone say “Dexy’s Midnight Runners”?

The “players wives” sections are pretty huge at those events.

I think you’re right.

As a former child prodigy in Tennis, I demand the title of this post be changed.

Idiotic- Yes

Boring-Only to watch on TV.

It’s pictures like that that make a guy think, “I wish I was gay.”

Why don’t they just call the town “Biscay Liquors” then? I don’t want to imagine houses or anything if they aren’t there.

The Biscay Liquor Store…is featured prominently on the Wikipedia page for the town of Biscay. It is listed under “tourism.” We love that.

Biscay Liquors is the only thing in Biscay. That would be why it’s listed as such, sir.

As a latchkey child of the ’80s, I am fairly sure that “Come on Eileen” was by Dexy’s Midnight Runners, not the J. Geils Band.

Unless there is some other connection that I am missing. In that case I am very sorry for speaking up, and carry on…
