Stuck In Thee Garage #260: March 1, 2019

It's strange to think that kids today view the '80s the way I viewed the '50s when I was teenager: Weird, improbable and a crazy long time ago. But here we are. The world in 1984 was a very different place than it is 35 years later, and not just because of the technological advancements.
