Joe Bob’s Thought of the Day: Medical Edition

  Have you ever examined one of those 90-page medical bills where the hospital is charging $9.50 every time they use a Q-tip?

   If you have good insurance, it says, "Well, your total bill is $97,000, but we're adjusting it down by $20,000 and your insurance company is paying $76,950, so you owe us $50."

     And if you have bad insurance, it says, "Well, your total bill is $97,000, but we're adjusting it down by $80,000 and you ow...

Tonight‘s Drive-In Theater is extra special because we get a Frank Stallone update! 🥰 He also mentions Drive-In folks who got their ⭐️ on the Walk of Fame, which is totally a project/goal of mine for next year. JB thinks that stuff is silly, but I think he totally deserves one after 4...

If "The Tingler" premiered today, with theater seats rigged with ”Percepto!" shock buzzers, someone would sue William Castle for emotional distress and assault--because we have become a nation of humorless WIMPS.

Joe Bob’s Thought of the Day: Diplomatic Edition

Am I the only person who thinks it's stupid to send diplomats to China who talk about democracy all the time? Do they have meetings at the State Department where they say, "Hey, here's one that'll piss em off!" And then does somebody on the back row say, "Yeah, that Communist strongman will be so hopping mad when you remind him that China is not a democracy that, as soon as you leave, he'll kill himself so the people can rule."

The Dead Zone & Warlock: The Armageddon (Air Date: 5/16/98)

Happy Splatterday Night, Patreon Pals!

Hope you’re having a great weekend so far, and that this lil blast from MV past helps make it even just a lil’ bit better! I ❤️❤️❤️ both these movies, and it’s Rusty’s first appearance after Reno quit to pursue her film career.

Joe Bob’s Thought of the Day: Wishful Thinking Edition

Now that gas prices have dropped to February levels, shipping fees will plunge drastically, no one will use "supply chain" as an excuse,  city councils will reverse all the "energy surcharges" they allowed for taxi companies, people will stop blaming inflation on oil prices, Uber drivers will stop talking about the price of gasoline, and everything we buy will be cheaper.

Right?

Sybil Danning Adventure Video

I wish I knew exactly what it is I’m sharing with you tonight. Alas, all I know is it’s some sort of badassery featuring Sybill in various sultry ensembles advertising…action VHS releases, I guess? 🤔 

If anyone knows more about what this is please feel free to enlighten us. I will be interviewing her soon so if we havent pieced it together by then I will ask her about it.

Zelensky, the president of Ukraine, has to keep his whereabouts unknown so the Rooskies can't assassinate him, so how does Biden talk to him? On an Iridium phone. 

If you don't know what an Iridium phone is, read "Eccentric Orbits," the book by John Bloom that resulted in Darcy becoming the Mail Girl. (It's a long story--and it's a long book.)

Joe Bob’s Thought of the Day: Morbid Edition

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the message of those relentless Colonial Penn commercials?:

“It's gonna cost money to put you in a box when you die and then buy a hole in the ground! YOU OWE THAT MONEY. Even if you're dead."

Because it's not real life insurance, right? It's just a few thousand dollars to buy a casket and a plot. They're essentially saying you owe money now for stuff after you're dead.

Just dispose of my body, okay? The cheapest way to make my flesh...

Joe Bob’s Thought of the Day: “Go Bucs” Edition 😉

Do you know the difference between a $960 ticket that allows you to sit in Section V111, Row 1, to watch the Rams play the Chargers at SoFi  Stadium, and a $4 ticket that allows you to sit in Section 627, Row 2,
to watch the Lions play the Colts at Lucas Oil Stadium?

NOTHING. THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE. IT'S PRESEASON FOOTBALL.
