Thumbs up Corolla Currituck Beach Lighthouse


The Currituck Beach Lighthouse at Corolla is the only light in North Carolina that is still housed in its original structure. The tower is 163 feet tall.

First put into service on December 1, 1875, it still serves as an aid to navigation. Each of the many lighthouses in the region received distinctive painted exteriors to aid identification --except the light at Corolla. It was distinguished by being left unpainted, allowing the visitors to view nearly one million bricks!

I would like to see a picture of Time magazines man of the year 1980

Coneheads - Disguised as a middle-class New York family living at 213 Pineway Avenue in suburban Parkwood Heights, the Coneheads were in reality pointy-headed outer space aliens from the planet Remulak. The Coneheads consisted of two parental units, Beldar (Dan Aykroyd) and Prymaat (Jane Curtin) and a teenage unit named Connie, a.k.a. "Conjaab" (Laraine Newman). Originally, Beldar & Prymaat were dispatched to the planet Earth by Remulak's High Master to seize all major centers of radio and television communications and inform the earthlings of their intent to take over the planet. Beldar was to read a speech which began: "People of Earth, I am the Timekeeper from the planet Remulak, your weapons are useless..." Unfortunately, Beldar lost the rest of the speech with all the instructions including dates, places, and orders to the United Nations. He also accidentally crash-landed their anti-gravity powered space ship into Lake Michigan. Trapped on Earth, because their planet had just cut back on funding to their space program, they adopted the guise of Fred & Joyce Conehead. Beldar supported his family be taking a job as an insurance salesman and later as a driving instructor. Their daughter Connie, who knew her parents were a bit different, never suspected that they were from outer space. She had a hard time in school with inquisitive kids, however. "They want to know where I come from, Daddy? Where do we come from?" She was instructed "France! Just keep telling them you come from France!" Her parents finally informed her of the family's Remulakan ancestry when she was a teenager. The Coneheads adopted earthly customs but went over board in their enthusiasm. They referred to humans as "Blunt Skulls." Their favorite meal consisted of six packs of beer, potato chips and shredded raw animal flesh, of which they consumed "mass quantities." Sexual foreplay for Remulakan's was accomplished with the help of large plastic rings covered with fur. They would toss the rings onto each other's Coneheads. Each sighed with pleasure when a ring hit its mark. As to their home world, the planet Remulak is a binary system in a galaxy within the Cone Nebula some twenty-six light years from the Earth. The planet is arid and covered with volcanic plains. It has seven moons and two suns that revolve around a black hole in the Cone Nebula. Vertexo is the capital city of Remulak. In their normal environment, the Coneheads breathe in carbon dioxide and exhale oxygen. The planet is ruled by politicians called Vulglerion, a sect of super-intelligent priests with mushroom shaped cones who possess the abilities of telepathy and telekinesis. The planet's major employer is Butuminous Protoid, a global conglomerate, controlled by The Cone Council of Ten and two Ephors (Assistants to the High Master). Conehead Beldar's real name is Beldar Clorhone. His parental units were Dreldkon and Jronda. Beldar & Family returned to their home planet on 3/23/77 in an episode entitled "Return to Remulak." They used the New York Chrysler Building as their return spacecraft, not forgetting to bring back samples of Earth's culture (six packs of beer). In the movie adaptation Coneheads (1993) Beldar Singh Conehead lived at 107 N. Oak Avenue, Jersey City, NJ 07304. Ten years earlier in 1983 the Conehead characters appeared in the Jules Bass, Arthur Rankin, Jr. animated 30-minute TV special that featured the voices of the original SNL cast. TRIVIA NOTE: The inspiration for the Coneheads came from a proposal by comedian Dan Aykroyd about pin-headed lawyers. This idea was shot down by the producers, fearing it might be offensive. A later trip to the Easter Islands in the South Pacific and the haunting images of stone head monoliths inspired Aykroyd to pen the series drawings that evolved into the Coneheads. The first of eleven Conehead sketches debuted on January 15, 1977. Buck Henry & Dan Aykroyd earlier starred in a 10/19/76 sketch called "Dates from Outer Space" in which cone-headed aliens dressed in tight-fitting silver wetsuits landed on Earth and picked up some teenage girls. Buck Henry's name in the sketch was Crealon.

Time Man of the Year 1980, though not the issue which would have been in 1981.



A picture of the man who hit 61 in 1961 and the man who's home run record he broke. That be two pictures!
