A GLORIOUS NEW YEAR

 YES,  NORMA'S ANOTHER YEAR OLDER AND IN CASE YOU'RE WONDERING, SHE FEELS EVERY FUCKING DAY, EVERY FUCKING MOMENT OLDER.



BUZZR AIRS A FASCINATING RELIC ON SATURDAY MORNINGS. 

THE ORIGINAL EVENING VERSION OF THE PRICE IS RIGHT (FROM 1959-60ish) IS AN AMAZING GLIMPSE INTO YESTERDAY. ON TODAY'S AIRING THEY JUST GAVE AWAY A VERY COOL KITCHEN. WASHER/DRYER, RANGE, OVEN, DISHWASHER & REFRIGERATOR ALL BUILT INTO CUSTOM CABINETS. THE ENTIRE WALL OF GOODIES WAS VALUED AT A BIT OVER $3000.00.

ALL THE CONTESTANTS HAD TO DO WAS CORRECTLY GUESS THE PRICE OF AN ELECTRIC CAN OPENER. 

THE CORRECT PRICE OF THE OPENER WAS APPROXIMATELY $30.00(!) WHICH SEEMED CRAZY. AFTER CHECKING, I FOUND THAT $30.00 IN 1960 TRANSLATES TO $300.00 TODAY.



HAVE I MENTIONED HOW HIDEOUS THE WORLD IS.
