    i really hate the phrase "main street"

    noone lives on main street, they huddle in their little suburban enclaves...

    Tim actually grew up on Main St. (I know, it freaked me out, too). His parents finally sold the house 5-6 years ago; the neighborhood had just gotten too scary bad.

    From what I saw, some people DO live on Main St., but they're too busy selling crack to care about Wall St.

    I knew it was evolution something, according to Wiki it is The Evolution Revolution.

    [edit] The Evolution Revolution This all-chimp band, dressed in extreme, colorful flower-child wigs and wardrobe, featured Lance Link (played by Tonga) on guitar and Mata Hairi (played by Debbie) on tambourine, with Blackie on the drums. The name of the chimpanzee on keyboards was never mentioned and none of the chimps' actual names was disclosed in the credits.

    In one episode (appropriately entitled "The Evolution Revolution"), it was established that the band's music was used to communicate coded messages for APE agents.

    The songs were usually co-written and always performed by Steve Hoffman, in the "bubblegum" style then in vogue. (Hoffman received "voices" credit along with the various character actors.) A Lancelot Link record album was released on ABC/Dunhill, as well as a single titled 'Sha-La Love You'. The musical sound was almost interchangeable with the music of The Grass Roots, who used the same recording facilities and the identical studio musicians. ("Sha-La Love You" had actually been intended as a Grass Roots record.) Some songs contained heavy guitar riffs, reflecting the growth of hard rock and heavy metal.

    Anyone see any irony here?

    DC's closer. Honestly, at this point I'm not so concerned with punishing the right person as I am with just hurting someone.

    Oh no! I never even thought about Tech St. If Wall St kills Main St. AND Tech St. We'll really be screwed. I hope Sesame St. is OK, But I've heard they were slow paying the Electric Company.
