Jake Roberts and Rick Rude settle their issue over Cheryl Roberts, Andre the Giant doesn’t like snakes, Hulk Hogan doesn’t like kings, The Hart Foundation doesn’t like Jimmy Hart, and The Big Boss Man really doesn’t like Hulk Hogan as Joey goes after toilet paper and batteries, surveys storm damage, and wonders what day it is as he takes a look at the Saturday Night’s Main Even from October 1988.

17. Larry Nelson got paid in interviews: SuperClash III. Larry Nelson gets paid in interviews, Kerry Von Erich bleeds for the industry, Sgt. Slaughter is portraying a character, Joey finds another wrestler to hate, Verne Gagne is lost, and this show is a mess as Joey takes a look at SuperClash III.

18. Lord Buckethead and Me: Survivor Series 1988. Joey talks about released WWE Superstars, Howard Finkel, and his personal relationship with Lord Buckethead as he takes a look at Survivor Series 1988 from the WWF.

19. With a Whimper: AWA SuperClash IV. Verne Gagne’s great AWA promotion comes to an end not with a bang, but with a whimper. Larry Zbyszko gets a shoulder up on Mr. Saito, Bob Lurtsema wants to be a referee, Tully Blanchard pops up, and the crowd wants to smoke.

20. An Unfortunate Drinking Game: SNME November 1988. Andre the Giant doesn’t want any snakes around, the Rougeau Brothers have relocated to the USA, Hulk Hogan heads to The Brother Love Show, and the episode is marred by a lot of yikes moments as Joey takes out the recycling and looks at the Saturday Night’s Main Event from November 1988.

Memories of Tomorrow by Dean Koontz

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


What strange science made Nameless who he is? What catastrophes have been erased from his memories? In the stunning conclusion of this series, the dark past comes flooding back, and Nameless must decide how much he really wants to know.

In Indiana, a murderous psycho has kidnapped his own six-year-old stepson, Jamie, and secreted him away in a subterranean cave. It’s become their bunker. For Nameless, the case is breaking down his defenses, and it may force him to face his memories.

You get a little closure and some, but not all, of the answers in this conclusion.

Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens
