    I noticed on the Vault one release (1/17/92) the "Josh" part of Evenflow was edited out. Eddie and him must have made amends since then. :-)

    Also, Eddie is wearing the same shirt in the Evenflow video as he is in the Hunger Strike video.

    Got pulled over by a MN State Trooper today. I got a written warning for obstructed view of my windshield. I had a classic new car scent tree shaped air freshener hanging from my rearview mirror. No joke!

    i love this movie. when i worked at best buy back in the day, one of my co-workers also worked at a movie theater. he knew i was all about this movie before it came out, so he invited me along to the employee screening of it a few days before the wide release (not sure this would even happen today!). it was like christmas. and i still crush hard on gina gershon.

    Many years ago, I got tagged for a DUI. Reason I was stopped; one of the lights on my rear license plate was out.

    this exact thing, for the same exact reason, has happened to me. it's like, c'mon man, really?

    Midnight movies for employees still happen. I saw lots of movies without forking over any money.
  • evenflow82evenflow82 Posts: 3,891
    I worked at a theatre in small town WI during high school and college breaks. We did midnight movies for employees and advanced screenings for employees all the time. I saw hundreds of terrible and a couple good movies for free.

    It was all I could do to not laugh. Yes sir. I'll take it down right away, sir.

    I'm just glad he told me why he pulled me over up front, instead of the typical "Do you know why I pulled you over?"

    Answers might have included:
    Because I was going 90 in a 70 back there.
    Because I had 2 beers instead of lunch.
    Because I'm not wearing shoes.

    Would have been my 3rd speeding ticket in as many weeks. Highway cops are on high alert lately.

    First Ferguson, now this?! We officially live in a Police State, folks.

    At seventeen I once blew through a stop sign while driving with ski boots on and got off with a warning. The stupid mistakes we make as teenagers...

    You need to wear shoes while driving?!?

    According to the "Society for Barefoot Living", it's "not prohibited".

    Other googling sources appear to say it's ok in MN. I find it hard to believe the cop would have missed my shoes on the floor of the passenger side. That's the window he walked up to, he had to have smelled them.

    I also smelled a skunk in the vicinity when I pulled over. I thought for sure he was going to tear my car apart.

    There must have been a lot of skunks at the last few PJ shows I've been to....

    Ha! That wasn't a euphemism, though. Actually smelled like dead skunk.

    The character "Hawkeye" in The Last of the Mohicans is also known as "Natty BUMP-o." (That's actually true. Great book. Awful movie).

    Air freshener related cop story:
    One night I got pulled over on my way home from a friends house. I had a headlight out, which my buddy informed me of when I pulled into his driveway earlier that evening. So, the cop comes up to my window (Maryland State Tfc) and gives me the whole "Do you know why I pulled you over?" Of course, I answered honestly and told him I just noticed it earlier that night. Then, of course, since it was late at night he had to ask me if I had been drinking (I hadn't), where I was coming from, where I was going, etc. The typical questions. His last one caught me really off guard though, and he seemed way more concerned about it than what anyone ever should be. "I noticed a smell of cake in your car. Any idea what that might be?" I had a few smart ass answers to give him (I don't know, is cake illegal? Maybe it's the donut on your upper lip., etc.) but I just kept my mouth shut and looked at him like wtf? And he just stood there like he was waiting on me to answer. All I could think was I had a fairly new vanilla air freshener, so I told him it was probably that. He said "Yeah, could be I suppose" then went back to the car to write my work order. To this very day, I have no idea why he was so concerned about cake smell.

    He was looking and hoping for a bribe.
