I babysat a toddler whose mother insisted on feeding her child pureed carrots at every meal. His skin turned orange! I mean 'carrot orange'. The father ended up divorcing the mother so he could properly care for the child and control the child's diet. It took a while but the toddler's skin color went back to normal a few months later.
"Peggy Sue got married" with Kathleen Turner and Cage should be mentioned. While Turner was excellent in the movie Cage was sooo totally miscast that it made his scenes cringe-worthy. I recently watched this movie again and it doesn't improve with age. He was just completely miscast for that movie.
Not one of their best songs, IMO and I found the imagery off-putting - especially video bits of John 'dancing' manically around. No, I don't ever want to view that video again.
One year I was in the hospital for Thanksgiving so my daughter who had become a vegan that year decided to make a tofurkey for the holiday "with all the trimmings" for the rest of the family. You can't make gravy from a tofukey, btw. Apparently it was disgusting and ended up in the bin with the rest of the veggie debris.
I directed 30 plays and acted in more than that over a 20 year span working in the 'theatre'. I have stated in the past, and I'm still sticking with my statement, that at least 85% of actors have mental problems. I am talking delusional. What we would call "sane" is hard to find within the acting community. Oh... the stories I could tell.
Hell Night. Time for vandals to burn down abandoned (or Squatter or Drug Den) houses. Detroit was always on fire in multiple areas during Hell Night. The police would ask for people to patrol areas to prevent fire bugs from torching buildings. I remember some neighbors sitting on the roofs of their houses with flashlights and loaded rifles. ah... fun times
"Knocker uppers" sure is an odd phrase, IMO.So how did the phrase go from knocking on windows to men getting women pregnant?
