My cousin had a 12 foot pink plastic flamingo he would put on his lawn after Memorial Day and put it away after Labor Day. He did this for years until someone stole it. It was never recovered. Bummer.
Jolson didn't like hearing other performers speaking on stage when he was in his dressing room so he would turn his water faucet on full force to 'drown out' the noise.
I don't do wedding showers. I think a lot of weddings are steered towards 'getting' as much as possible out of their guests. Case in point - my best friend's son just got married. Now, it's just not enough to give a wedding present anymore, now we are now expected to buy another present for the 'shower'. How many $250 5 piece place settings do these people really expect to get? It's sheer greed. Sorry, I'm an old hippie who got married in her parent's house with ONLY close friends and family in attendance. No 'showers', no bridal gifts wanted or required. I'm not into milking my guests for money and gifts. Don't give me 'tradition' as a reason for doing so! 41 years this December we'll be married so we must have done something right. Not bleeding our friends and relatives of their hard earned cash was just a bonus.
*crickets* Just what does that one word evoke? Obviously, enough people saw that one cartoon involving a silent audience for Daffy Duck, because how many times have we seen a comment in some thread of just: *crickets* to voice our displeasure?
