California Woman Shocked by How Texans Act at Waterpark
A TikTok video has gone viral of a California woman and she was shocked how Texans act at the Waterpark.

Things You’d See in a 1980s Garage
Garages in the '80s were less about parking your car and more about being a catch-all for everything you needed to get out of the house as consumer-driven culture kicked its jazzercised butt into high gear. It was also a place where parents (okay, let's face it, Dad) could "tinker"—a...

Jefferson Starship Is Still Flying High at 50
Jefferson Starship has been to the moon and back, metaphorically speaking. This year, their music will once again carry them all over the world, from Pennsylvania to Paris. The San Francisco-bred band is celebrating its 50th anniversary here in 2024, playing dates with the Marshall Tucker Band, but also diverse stage mates like Deep Purple. That might seem like a strange combo at first glance, but as it turns out, the heavier side of their catalog can easily build that bridge. The psychedelic side of their Jefferson Airplane days opens other portals. Their numerous radio hits gave them plenty of ammo to spend the summer of 2023 touring with Bret Michaels and Night Ranger as part of the inaugural Parti-Gras tour.

Courteney Cox has recreated her dance moves from Bruce Springsteen's 1984 "Dancing in the Dark" music video, posting a new clip to her social media.

Cox starts out dancing to Bronski Beat's "Smalltown Boy," but then the music switches to "Dancing in the Dark" and Cox unzips her hoodie to reveal a Born in the U.S.A. shirt.
Famous TV Shows With Only One Surviving Cast Member

There weren’t any adult cartoons at this point.”
