Now, if you say you found ONJ hot after Sordid Lives (which was a great film, btw), you might need a little ostracizing. @ Robert: It was indeed.@ Jason: Appropos of little, my dad was a huge fan of Doris Day, so you’re in fine company.

I can deal with the hair, and I dig his Star Trek meets V top that is appropriatly unbutton and folded down in one corner - giving him that essential sci-fi dishelved look...but oh that moustache. He's the fey man's Oates. He looks like Adam Sandler's limo driving friend in The Wedding Singer. "Break My Stride" was like a bonding song for my mom and me. She'd pick me up from 4th grade, I'd be all pissy to her, than break my stride would come on and we'd be laughing like school girls in no time. Now THAT'S a gift. - thank U Mr. Wilder!

It was right after Grease came out, and she was all in black and looking sultry standing against the wall and everything ...Or are y'all going to make me start backing my stuff up with Billboard charts? Don't I get credit for just remembering some of this stuff? @ D-Dubs: What about ONJ’s Totally Hot album of 1978?

Please don't come to my website and make fun of me. I think View to A Kill is the best Bond them there is.  Followed by The Spy Who Loved Me by Carly Simon.

He worked with some of the fellows from Toto on it, and it's slick as all get out. You can watch the atrocious video for the album's single, "Hold on to Love," at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2yMCKk9Qtug ... it's as if Jon is trying to channel Al Jarreau or something. This from the man who sang "Roundabout" and "I've Seen All Good People." Yeesh!
