My, how time does fly...
Down at Massimo's (icecream shop), the young teenage girl walking behind the counter was happily bopping and singing along to Hocus Pocus's "Here's Johnny":



which I think samples Jack's impression of the line in The Shining.

We were all surprised she even knew the song, as it was from 1993. We doubt she knew its origins (The Shining or Carson), but, hey, they're a constant surprise.

Cheers,
