Against my mom’s objections, my dad took me to see Terminator 2 for my birthday. I remember the exact date: August 19, 1991, a Monday. He would always take two weeks off in August and we typically went on vacation somewhere in Michigan. Of course I wanted a Harley Fatboy just like the one in the movie. In 1992 I got my first dirt bike and learned to ride. The Harley had to wait several more years…

“Fuck”
“T2 the reason why I rode a bike, it was no Harley but it was still bad to the bone.”
“In 1991 there was no cooler band than G&R and there was no cooler movie than T2. I was 9 when this video dropped and I lost my mind with its sheer awesomeness. Parents wouldn't take me to T2 in the theaters so me and my friend theater hopped after buying tickets for a different flick.”
(Me: Sounds like something I would have done but at least my dad took me to see it. And we didn’t say “dropped” back then. But yes it was “sheer awesomeness” or as a late 80’s or early 90’s kid would actually say, “totally awesome.”

“My favorite Guns and Roses song. That intro is amazing. I just saw them in concert. Slash is worth the admission alone. I highly recommend everybody go see them.”
