I admired Ric for one thing... If a guy, who looked like him could get a girl, who looked like Paulina Porzikovia, and guys, who looked like Billy Joel could get a girl, who looked like Christie Brinkley, I thought that maybe, just maybe there was the tiniest bit of hope for the rest of us. :P

If it wasn’t for the Cars, we might not have had the greatest scene in ‘80s movie history (hint: the song was Moving in Stereo).

Ric Ocasek and Ben had unique voices. They only sounded like each other. Sometimes have to have a scorecard to know who sang what.

Yeah, I remember when she did an interview on Stern and he said the same thing.

Amazing what a few million can do for a guys looks. Okasik, Steven Tyler, Keith Richards, Mick Jagger and Ronnie Woods would be paying for hookers if not for music.

Did you see her in the movie Thursday (1998)?
Smokin'. Looked excellent minus her clothes, cough, cough.

If you can get past the language in the movie, it's pretty entertaining. Somewhat campy.

Darn. That is so sad. Time flies.

I had dinner with him years ago. I wasn’t his date. He was with a very attractive woman, not Paulina, but a very attractive model who was a former (and possibly still) girlfriend of my date. LOL

What I remember about the evening was that he was very thin and was wearing leather outfit with pants that looked very tight. I was thinking that wasn’t a good idea because he might get a UTI from them.

Ric was very quiet - probably because he was stuck having dinner with his girl friend’s ex and she was all over him. LOL

In the words of Johnny Cougar...Forget all about that macho shit and learn how to play guitar.

Piano works too.
