    Those guys were characters not actors.

    And why no one has mention Lloyd Dobbler yet, I just don't know.

    "Would you fall in love with a guy like Lloyd?"
    "Yeah."

    I had to go look it up. Judd Nelson was born in November 1959. The Breakfast Club came out in the spring of 1985, so although not a teenager he was probably only 24 when it was filmed maybe 25.

    He is however older than George Clooney.

    Never let the facts get in the way of a good story. Or a point you are trying to make.

    I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that.

    Nice, what part of fancy pants Melrose? We're up the big hill on the southeast side.

    I love this quote so much. A lot of people focus on the teens' quotes but if you ask me, this was a brilliant line for this movie. It played out the stereotype of how athletes get preferential treatment and almost help increase the divide amongst the clubbers. That guy was the best principal, Ed Rooney was a close second.

    Temporary thread hijack alert

    They're predicting snow here this weekend.

    You may now resume discussion of the Reagan years and the Brat Pack.

    Cheers,

    They're predicting highs in the 80's tomorrow, possibly more if the Santa Anas really kick up.

    Anyone remember the band "Reagan Youth"?

    I'm brewing dunkin donuts coffee and reusing the canister. The coffee is good, and the environment is saved. Somebody phone Al Gore.

    The downside of this experiment is excessive coffee consumption. The caffeine high increases my typing speed but the inevitable crash may be catastrophic. Or is it catatonic? Is there such a thing as a catatonic catastrophe? Alas, I digress.

    My next mission: find a way to brew beer in the Keurig coffee machines.
    Beer? Coffee machines? I'd probably just buy some Bell's Java Stout or any coffee stout you could find. Or, put a shot of espresso in your next plain stout.

    IIRC, he was the vice principal, even lower than lunch lady in the school administration hierarchy in my book. But you're right, his role was critical to the whole "you see us as you want to see us" theme of the movie.


    Ed Rooney? I heard that he was feeling ill; headaches, fever, and a chill. I came to help restore his pluck...

    According to Wiki, he was the principal. That matches my recollection.
