The Lampwick Continuüm got together all of our radical ‘tudes and bitchin’ ‘dos and we had a killer 80’s Par-tay. We watched a bunch of awesome music videos, and somebody brought a whole tray of these tubular sandwiches they called “wraps” like it’s oh so Hollywood, baby. There were wine coolers and Fuzzy Navels and everybody was totally stoked about the whole thing. A couple of the guys were rockin’ their Member Only jackets, and there was eyeliner and Aqua Net for days. We were gonna like, prank call this one dude’s house but like, he moved, so whatever… We read all these Top 10 lists of the Best and Worst movies and TV shows of the 80’s and argued about them instead.

Afterwards, members made a foray into the uncharted depths of Sakura, and it was universally condemned.

However, that cannot be corroborated at this time.

Hazy recollections of the event follow, as does a rare look at an ancient ritual:
