OH COME ON. WE'RE FOURTEEN AWAY FROM OUR GOAL OF 100.
87. Theres no way these things are local boys. 88. That the worm broke in the wrong god damn wreckroom, didnt it, that bastard. 89. In Perfection, theres nothing new under the sun, but under the ground. 90. If Burt could reach his rifle he'd have a thing for El Blanco too. 91. Earl likes his coffee black. 92. Graboids dont like pogo sticks.
Thats all I got. Someone needs to come up with seven more, then Ill take the liberty of copying any pasting all our learnings into one giant post.

93. Burt Gummer is the reason we're at the top of the food chain 94. Larry has a slight obsession with describing Frank's eyes 95. It's scary when Burt is right about things. 96. When Larry is at Wal Mart, he wishes he was somewhere else, like Skull Island or Middle Earth or Perfection. 97. Rock/Paper/Scissors is the best way to determine the outcome of a life or death situation. 98. Dirt Dragons.al knows when the truck isn't hung up. 99. Project 4-12 has a horn between his eyes. Red eyes. and, most importantly, 100. TREMORS IS THE BEST MOVIE/TV SERIES EVER!!!!!

I just noticed I wrote 98 wrong. It shouldn't say Dirt Dragons, but it should say Val. Otherwise, that's great!

thank you, sir, for the summary. I've been away a while with medical issues ... it's good to get back and this is a welcome present ... now to print it and post it on my wall at work. Like Twitch, I'm a GS-13 and it'll drive all the other "mid-level government functionaries" nuts! :-)

:oGraboids stink more when they are alive then when they are dead. No one does garbage like Val & Earl. Edgar always wears that same damm jacket.
