This is the weekend that Cinderella stories go to die. Traditionally. We’ll see if this weekend is any different. Here is the schedule (all times Eastern)
Congratulations to Doktor Zymm for guessing last week’s hidden theme of songs performed by Shawn and Gus on Psych!

And now, for the music!
As I mentioned before, I’ve decided that I must take up the mantle that tWBS ran with and help to make this world a better place. I will do this in the one way he couldn’t: By introducing you to good music!
Today we are back to the puzzles! Enjoy these fine songs and figure out what the common theme is among them. I will give up to three hints in the comments.
Song Number One:
Canción Número Dos:
Chanson Numéro Trois:
Canzone numero quattro:

1956 Continental Mark II
It’s not a Lincoln Continental (those came before and after) but these cars were produced only in 1956 and ’57 by the short-lived Continental Division of the Ford Motor Company. They were almost entirely hand-built and used the finest materials everywhere. They used a Lincoln powertrain; they would pick out Lincoln engines and take them back to their facility and completely disassemble them. They would rebuild them to perfect balances and tolerances and put on some of their own components too.
The Continental Division was run by William Clay Ford Sr., the youngest brother of Henry Ford II who was the head of the company. He was 26 years old. After two years the Continental Division was folded back into Lincoln and production of the car ceased.
William Clay Ford was so heartbroken that he bought the Detroit Lions and they’ve only won a single playoff game since.
Here’s nice article:

That’s a bad ass piece of Detroit rolling steel.
1941 Lincoln Continental
I guess it’s been about 15 years ago that my favorite kitty died.
Work with me here. It’s background.
My cat, Maggie NEVER left my apartment. Never. One night we’ve got a party going, minor craziness and I go to bed.
Wake up to take a piss and my brain screams to a halt.
Where’s Maggie?!
Nowhere in the house.
I love Maggie and I start to panic.
“Maggie? Where are you Maggie?”
I walk outside of the apartment and we have a second staircase landing, right next door.
I take a few steps.
There she is!
She’s got this look like “I’ll never walk out the front door again. I swear to GOD!”
I bring her back inside and everything is fine.
She lived another 5 years after that.
…
I came home tonight and TAJ was in the driveway.
That’s different.
“Taking in the weather?” (it was 75 and sunny today)
/he had the exact same look on his face as Maggie did.
“minor craziness and I go to bed”
/nods knowingly
-Jerry Lee Lewis
He locked himself outside for 7 hours.
No Phone.
No keys.
No motorcar.
Not a single luxury.
Like Robinson Caarusoe, it’s primitive as can be! Did I tell you my dad worked with the Professor’s brother, who looked exactly like him even though they weren’t twins, when the show was on tv? It amazed the fuck out of me when I was in kindergarten!
Slow sprots night tonight, so I revisited some old Top Gear travel specials, Botswana and Source of the NIle. Love those specials.
They really run those cars into the ground. I wonder if they have to rent a helicopter to take those things to the dump afterwards.
I know which one I would eat.
The back breast?
I honor of the dude who smacked that racist guy at the convenience store upside the forehead with a Twisted Tea, I picked up a Twisted Tea at the convenience store.
Dude should franchise his own brand of iced tea. “Intolerance Tea.”
I would buy it, even if it tasted like Zima.
Not taking any shit from racist crackers
I went surfing today! The ocean stank like [something crass].
It was ninety degrees here in LA. In the middle of January, that’s totally normal, right?
I remember a winter day when we were at LA zoo. In the damn 80’s. It was the first day it was that warm and everyone was at the zoo that day. It was either January or February.
Fucking 84 in El Segundo today.
Well it is January 15th.
you know, i should have starting watching Lucifer earlier
It’s a show with charisma, maybe a little weak on plot, but so satisfying to watch because of the heart it shows.
One of my fingers blew up 2 1/2 times its size (over the course of 72 hours) so I went to the hospital this morning. The doc told me to lie down before he squeezed all the junk out my finger because ‘a lot of people pass out’.
Me: [ten minutes later] “YA THINK???”
/holy fuckballs, that was intense
damn. how was the smell?
It may have stunk like 10 skunks but I was in too much pain to notice. For the record, I didn’t pass out but wow, I was still shaking and sweating when I got home.
Too much viagra?
Dr PimplePopper?
My octogenarian parents love that show. Just the ads make me gag.
What caused it? Hobo tetanus?
At least it wasn’t your penis.
This week was a bear. And not any of the good kinds of bear. It was like chris conte level.
still not as bad as cade mcnown
Go on…
– Buddy
Next week doesn’t hold much promise either. Interested to see how the racists deal with MLK day this year.
With violence?
That would be the number one answer on Family Feud.
MLK and the inauguration? The racists are going to be whining non-stop.
And trying to co-opt him as a conservative.
I’ll name her Scrappy
tina louise, if you want names.
seriously, she doesn’t look like a tina
over 50 years after Gilligan’s Island, Tina Louise is still alive and well at age 84 (my dad turned 84 on 13 Jan).
watching wandavision, episode 2, lets just it has an attractive female in gloves….
No word on the NRA filing for bankruptcy? I expected a parade.
The Kapital Koup Krew are holding a wake in their holding cells.
Well, they entered moral bankruptcy a long time ago
Here ya go,

[rocks out] – Derek Carr
Well duh, they couldn’t afford it.
Thoughts and prayers
Now THIS is how you do product placement.
(Andy Reid nods sympathetically)
Maybe he can get a spot on a Doritos Super Bowl commercial.
Well, they’re all songs from 1982, I believe.
More specifically, all #1 songs from 1982.
(We can split the prize, which I believe is a gently-used Fleshlight)
Doesn’t that prize split you?
If I play my cards right
Damn that was quick! Well done!!
Thats what she said
Damn. What a list.
