Porter Rao (Officer Pudney) - Here are some fun facts from the year 1990: The Cold War ends. Smoking was banned on all cross-country flights in the United States. "Home Alone" won the box office, Wilson Phillips rocked the Billboard charts, and the cool people were wearing parachute pants, just like M.C. Hammer. Can’t touch that.
