I've often wondered what happened to the wonderful Darby Romeo of Ben Is Dead and Retro Hell fame. Looks like she's living in Hawaii and running this surf blog. Very cool.
I wondered for years who the "Ben" was and if he was really dead. According to Wikipedia, he was Darby's ex-husband, a Frenchman, and she only dreamt he was dead.

- Gael Fashingbauer Cooper
- I'm an entertainment editor at MSNBC.com, and have maintained Pop Culture Junk Mail since August, 1999. The New York Times called the site "one of the best places to explore pop culture online," and Entertainment Weekly included it on their Top 100 Web Sites list. If you like weird food, strange products, and 1970s and 1980s nostalgia, PCJM is your home away from home.
I have a brand new BOOK, written with Brian Bellmont. "Whatever Happened to Pudding Pops? The Lost Toys, Tastes and Trends of the '70s and '80s." Buy it online, and follow our retro reminiscing on our GenXtinct blog, Facebook, and Twitter.
