80’s and 90’s kids have a strange taste for quicksand and Halley’s comet, the famous white glare that last visited us in 1986. I remember listening to the radio while my mom drove me to the park (or wherever else 9-year-olds go) and hearing the band Shinedown sing: “I just saw Halley’s comet / she waved / said, ‘Why you always running in place?’”
