Movie link added

I added the link for the full movie of
The Dungeonmaster

Not sure what will be posted soon/next, except for one classic Out Of Print Canadian rock LP from 1979/1980, which I know is NOT uploaded anywhere, as I searched a long time, and finally did break down and bought a copy off the internet.

No sense paying almost the same price for the 7 inch 45rpm hit single with pic sleeve, when I can get a deleted/punched out album with lyric sheet and both the single's songs as well.

I should start reading the label more carefully

I grabbed some food from Taco Bell with my sister, and she was asking me while laughing, "What the hell is this? Did you know they have sayings on these packages?
"I don't do well under pressure" "Pourquoi moi? Pourquoi maintenant?" "Why me? Why now?" "Where are you taking me?"
.... what the hell is this supposed to mean?"
and I sort of laughed too, guessing it was new, as I have only noticed either words Hot, or Mild !
