The overweight receptionist loves the lite-Fm station and forces all the poor saps to listen to Sheryl Crow and Hall and Oates all the time. When the calendar turned over to 1990, Hall and Oates became irrelevant and broke up. I forgot about Daryl Hall because he was the guy sans mustache. I remember in high school. Imagine me, awkward passi... Read Full Story
