Buy a Landslide...
Time for another edition of "I, Consumer"...
Olivia Newton John: Video Gold I and II DVD
Wow...I don't remember more than a handful of the videos here, but wow...where to begin. There's the weird jungle infant lost in some Labyrinth-esque world grandeur of "Heart Attack." There's the infamous "Physical" video. There's the we inherited the "Total Eclipse of the Heart" set and found a reallly bad body double for John Travolta action of "Twist of Fate." There's the we inherited the set of "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" and morphed with an awful gay 80s version of an Escher painting veneer of "The Rumour" (my favorite overlooked ONJ single...yes, I used the term ONJ!).
But ya know...there is the piece de resistance...The crazy violin player...The weird Apple-esque costumes...The evil hell children...The back-when-he-was-hot-hotness of Matt Lattanzi...It's the video for the forgotten "Landslide." It's worth the $9 of admission I paid to get this DVD. Oh, and there's these weird prism-like crystal that pops up every now and then that made me think, "Wait...did I just get the 'Out of This World - Season 1' DVD by accident?!?"
Quizno's Cabo Chicken Sandwich
In the fast-food restaurant world's effort to thrust chipotle in everything we eat comes the "for a limited time only" Cabo Chicken sandwich at Quizno's. It's a mix of cheese, bacon, chicken, and chipotle mayo. Ehhh...It blended into a bland amorphous salty medley. The bacon overpowered the chipotle to the point where you forgot there was any sauce on the sandwich. NO MORE CHIPOTLE...PLEASE! Well, Chipotle the restaruant is fine...but no more adding chipotle to everything! We've done everything we can with chipotle. Enough already!
