One of the few solos that I can’t imagine the song without.

The best Samuel L. Jackson role

Recently I was on a long flight to Hawai’i and I was faced with the difficult task of choosing between 4 or 5 fabulous movies. I had the difficult problem of choosing between Cars 2, Monte Carlo, and Captain America. But then I saw that Captain America co-starred Samuel L. Jackson.

This made up my mind for me. I mean, if he can make Snakes on a Plane awesome, how could you go wrong? Boy, was I not let down! I was so moved by his performance that I compiled all of his scenes into a single montage, so people could just watch the Samuel L. Jackson parts and not bother with the rest of the movie. SPOILERS ALERT – if you don’t want to have the end given away, watch this truncated version instead.

Anyway, here it is, ALL the Samuel L. Jackson parts in his co-starring role! Thanks Samuel L. for making this movie everything it was.

1984 Phil Collins – One More Night


If the constant 2 or 3 note pleas for just one more night were not working, the surprisingly interesting sax solo just might. Though I doubt anyone was surprised when the sax broke in.

1985 Billy Ocean – When the Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going


At almost 6 minutes, this song was way too long for its repetitive theme. So by the time you get to the sax solo, you’re totally ready for the song to wrap up. But honestly, this one redeemed the song a bit. For awhile anyway.

Keystone Kaperthon

Tom7 has become fond of running races under difficult conditions. One day, talking about possible future costumes, I somehow committed myself to a ridiculous pair costume. The idea was for Tom to run with chains on his legs and arms, like an escaped convict. It seemed so unlikely to be possible that I agreed to chase him as a keystone cop – if he went through with it.

Today’s airport of yesterday


Not to be confused with Pittsburgh, which is “Yesterday’s Airport of Tomorrow”. (O’Hare)

1982 Ray Parker Jr. – The Other Woman


The repetitive sax fills in this song were not really representative of the message, which is: in order to be happy, the singer needs to cheat on his relationship with someone spontaneous and different. Points for the duet though – that was unique.
