Not random, but this is the best place I could think to put this: at my local record shop, the guy just put out an original pressing of Vitalogy that's still in the original shrink wrap, with the original price tag still on it. $10.99

OK, I might be WAY off course with this, and my kids think I'm nuts, but here goes. While watching an episode of "Modern Family" the other night (The Butler's Escape), I kept hearing what I think were Pearl Jam-related references throughout the show:
1. Phil's son Luke has a box in which he keeps his magic tricks, and his stage name is The Great Lukini. When the camera pans to the box, the last "i" is hidden in the shadows and is barely noticeable.
2. Cam said he had to tip his hat to his high school music teacher who was a real force of nature. 3. Cam asked Mitchell to call the electrician but warned against calling Brad (they had trouble with the billing). 4. Claire was doing a crossword puzzle and incorrectly identified Seattle as the capital of Washington. 5. As Phil tried to perform The Butler's Escape while having a heart-to-heart talk with Luke, he recalled that his parents had to sign a RELEASE when he was in school so he could attend Junior Tumbling Congress.
I didn't think it was possible for me to love "Modern Family" even more, but I really loved this episode. Like I said, maybe I'm reading too much into this, but I thought maybe you guys would appreciate the references, because my kids sure didn't.

Happy New Year everyone!
I'm sorry, buddy, but you're reaching. And maybe a little obsessed.
