And, possibly due to the lack of (many) musicians today, Raz has the lowest score!

Yup.  But I did spot the error in the list.  Did anyone else? 

Is it missing the The in front of The Who?

Nope, that's just abbreviation.  It glares more than that.     (And no, it's not a birthdate error).

Nothing jumps out at me.

Richard Marx has never been a member of REO Speedwagon.  He opened for them on his first world tour, and he guested with them at a show in 2013 to play a couple of his songs.  But he was never a member.

That's hilarious. When I read that, I thought to myself, "how did I never realize Marx was the lead singer of REO Speedwagon"? Given his voice, I thought that was plausible.

And Marx is married to Daisy Fuentes? Who knew? Gives a whole new meaning to burying the lead.

REO's most famous singer is Kevin Cronin.  Personally, I favor Marx's voice over Cronin's, but Cronin's nasal whine has become indelibly linked to the band.  Interestingly, Cronin sang on their second album, then was replaced for the next three, not returning until 1976.  In that time, they recorded songs with different singers that would become hits only after they were recorded for a live album with Cronin on vocals. 

The only thing Marx and REO Speedwagon have in common is that both originate in Illinois.

Don't know what she looks like now, but that would've been a solid giggity 20-25 years ago.

They married only 10 years ago, so I'm guessing she's still on the right side of hot.

That math checks out for me.

Speaking of cars, mine started making a grinding noise yesterday. Dealership that sold it to me claimed they had replaced the brakes, but we'll see what the repair shop has to say about it. Waiting to give them a call in a few minutes to see if they have a loaner available so I can take it in to get it looked at.

You can put this story down in the category of maybe could only happen to me and BD. So the repair shop confirmed that I did need brakes both front and back. But when they sold me the car, they showed me the invoice showing they'd repaired both sets of brakes after they got the car in. They even gave me a copy of the invoice, so I pulled that out before I called them. Looking over the invoice, there's no VIN listed, only the car - a 2016 Kia Soul. Only problem is, I bought a 2016 Kia Sorento. So I called the dealership up and they didn't see that the Sorento had any work done, but they did see the invoice that he gave me in the file. So he says, yeah, that's out fault, then he goes into calculating his costs to replace everything. He comes up with it and then asks if he thinks $300 is fair. I said no, fair would be if you replaced the brakes for no charge, to match what you said I was purchasing. So he talked it over with guy who actually sold it to me and they agreed to replace everything at no cost. So now I'm waiting for them to get the parts in, then probably taking it there early next week to get everything fixed.

Sheesh.

Oh, and I also happened to ask what happened to my old car, since I never saw it show up on their website. He said a friend of his is a bail bondsman, so he gave him the car to have something inconspicuous to drive while trying to hunt these people down. So at least she's still doing some good in the world.

maybe check your other documents to see if Sorento/Soul are consistent.  Hate to have you find out registration and eventually title are for a different vehicle.

I bought it from my parents, it was previously my mom's car, and she insisted it was a she, so that's what it's always been.

I already have the title, and yes, I did check that right after I discovered the mistake, to make sure I didn't have any other issues lurking down the road.
