1980s rewind: Just when you thought it would hit No. 1…the story of the most frustrating No. 2 peaks of the ‘80s

1980s rewind: Just when you thought it would hit No. 1…the stories of hit singles with the most frustrating No. 2 chart peaks during the 1980s; #Foreigner, #Bruce Springsteen, #JohnnyHatesJazz, #Madonna, #MichaelJackson, #TinaTurner

(January 29, 2022).  Just when you thought it would hit No. 1…it suddenly didn’t.   Exactly 40 years ago this week, one of the most historic and, to Foreigner fans,  disappointing milestones in Billboard chart history occurred on the publication’s flagship singles chart, the Hot 100.   It happened when, after nine frustrating weeks of sitting at No. 2 on that chart behind Olivia Newton-John’s…

If you would just show up and ask me, I would have taken this collar off and I would have gone with you. I would go with you anywhere in the world. I was never going to do that, John.

Padawan training was having mixed results.

I was rewatching Midnight Mass, and I turned away from the subtitles for a moment (I'm Deaf for the people that didn't know) and questioned what I heard for a hot sec. Thought you'd all get a kick out of it like I did.

Father Paul loves Birds & Stamps

As if this nerd couldn't get any nerdier, he has a stamp collection and prints of Audubon bird lithographs. Let's explore the set again:

1) Framed bird prints

The ones over his bed look like shorebirds but the one on the back wall look like perched birds of prey. I wasn't able to find prints of these exact layouts, but this brown pelican is almost most deffo one of Audubon's:

2) Framed stamps, collecting tools, and binders

The framed stamps are also prob centered around baseball, the second from the top is this centennial celebration of professional baseball.

BONUS:

I'd bet money the patchwork quilt on his bed was made by women (as is tradition in this traditional community) in his congregation that would've been made during church-based sewing circle as a group quilt. It prob would've been given to him as a gift on a worthwhile occasion:

What I Realized

Ok so after doing this, the sad thing about this is that the other home sets have tons and tons of photos of family & friends, and Paul doesn't have a SINGLE personal photo up. None of his parents, or Alice, other relatives, or even a group photo with his parishioners of like a fun day at the Crock Pot Luck. There's nothing but religious imagery out in the living room, and Birds + Baseball in his own room. Why?
