I was today years old when I finally saw Ghostbusters II<\/a><\/em>. Just another one of the classic 80s films I missed due to living in the middle of nowhere with parents who didn’t “believe” in paying for cable television and treated the MPAA ratings like an 11th Commandment. I was thirty before I finally saw the original 1984 Ghostbusters<\/em>, and by then everyone in my fifth grade class had moved on. Sigh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I had an AM-FM radio, and Des Moines commercial Top 40 stations, so at least I got to hear Bobby Brown’s theme song over and over and over and over in 1989. These days it pops up a lot in the 80s internet radio, which is possibly how it got stuck in my head for five days straight. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
