The late comedy duo, Lemmon and Matthau, reprised their curmudgeonly on-screen friendship as John Gustafson and Max Goldman in the critically acclaimed film Grumpy Old Men.

Classic Drac
When I think of Count Dracula it’s hard to shake the hypnotic image of Bela Lugosi as the famous vampire. Decades of vampire costumes seem to be based on this iconic depiction.

Castaways
I remember tuning in to Gilligan’s Island quite a bit on Superstation WTBS growing up. Little did I know, there was some hidden theology lesson about vices in every episode. Apparently creator Sherwood Schwartz based each of the characters on a deadly sin. Any guesses on who the Skipper and Gilligan represented? -
Thirsty Smuggler
Following the deadly skirmish with locals, service continued to decline at Mos Eisley Cantina. The wretched hive became even more so when the new management found creative ways to save a few credits. -
Wentz Wagon
I’m excited to break out the Sharpies again for another Inktober. Today’s inkling is of Carson Wentz. It’s hard not to be a fan of this dedicated NFL QB from Bismarck.
