I would've added Mitchell-Lama housing, although I believe Albany passed that law back in the 1960s. Cyborg lived in Rochdale, some of Mitchell-Lama's finest (though not as cool as Co-Op or Starret City).

Hi, pissant:

Best:

The films of the 1970s were then and are now some of the finest and most diverse vehicles for acting and telling a story well.

Worst:

The four year habitation of the White House by peanut farmer and former Nuclear Sub engineer, Jimmy Carter.

Jack.

How can you overlook it when every major city has a rock station jamming it down your throat 24-7?

The very best cloyingly-weepy, pathetically saccharin, miss-her-painfully power ballad of the 70s is:


Please Come To Boston

"Please come to Boston for the springtime
I'm staying here with some friends and they've got lots of room
You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk
By a cafe were I hope to be working soon

Please come to Boston
She said "No,
won't you come home to me."

She said "Ramblin' boy, won't ya settle down?
Boston ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of a man from Tennessee"

Please come to Denver where the snow falls
We'll move up into the mountains so high that we can't be found
and throw "I love you" echoes down the canyon
And we'll lie awake at night 'til they come back around

Please come to Denver
She said "No,
Baby you come home to me."

She said "Ramblin' boy, why don't ya settle down?
Denver ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee"

Please come to L.A., we'll live forever
The California life alone is just too hard to bear
We'll live in a house that looks out over the ocean
And we'll see stars that fell from the sky, livin' up on the hill

Please come to L.A.
She said "No,
Baby you come home to me."

She said "Hey ramblin' boy, why don't ya settle down?
L.A. ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee"

Please come to Boston for the springtime
Please come to Boston for the springtime
Please come to Boston
Won't you please come to Boston
Won't you please come home to me
Won't you please come to Denver
Won't you please come to me (to L.A.)
Won't you please come back to your family (to Boston)
Won't you please come to L.A.
Won't you please come to Denver where the snow falls"

Of the bands you listed, I only still listen to Queen (the gay ones, I know). You left off ZZ Top. A mortal sin!

The up side is you could borrow his panty hose in the morning to go to work.
