How did I miss this one?

Oh...a BIG Thank you over to Identity Mixed for this post.

I don't know how I missed this headline, but this has to be one of my all time favorites for 2008

The Wall

A little background:

M and I are opposites.

She is analytical - I am a flake.

I am optimistic - she is more pessimistic.

M likes sports - I like art.

I am a morning person - M is NOT!

M loves horror movies - the more flesh eating zombies and things the scare the shit out of you the better.

I like romantic comedies and weird artsy flicks.

Music - ugh, we couldn't be more different if we tried. I like just about everything with the exception of hard rock and rap. I tend to be more poppy in my tastes over all, but the music I listen to really depends on my mood. Some days I just need music to blend into the background - classical and "smooth jazz" are perfect when I'm painting or reading a book. After a really aggravating day at work I put on Joan Jett, Pink, Alanis or anything I can scream to.

M is more of a hard rocker. She was into heavy metal in the 70's and hated disco. (sorry...I was the dancing queen) Loved the big hair bands of the 80's and plays her air guitar to all the great guitar solos! Groups like Black Sabbath, Poison, Def Leppard, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, ELO, Boston are more her tastes.

She's told me her high school stories of gettin' stoned and rockin' out - where I was going to the teen disco clubs and doin' the hustle with some sweaty guy in ugly polyester shirts trying to be the next John Travolta.

M had one exception though and it's such a drastic contrast to her rockin' and rollin' personality that it cracks me up every time I think about it.

She loves ABBA.

Yup!

Can you believe that one?

Whenever those feather haired, glittered festooned and harmonious Swedes come over the radio, she cranks it up and sings along!

Need proof?

How's this?

A picture of the wall in her bedroom when she was a teenager:



She was cleaning out some old drawers and boxes and came across this photo. I can't believe she actually took a picture of it...but hey?!?!
What a hoot!

I told her right away that this is sooooooo going in the blog!

We even went to see Mama Mia in NY a few years ago. (Fun show btw - if you like ABBA, you'll like the show).

So....I need to know how many other closet ABBA fans are there out there?

Come on, you can admit it!

Hey - you're talkin' to the gal who still has Captain and Tennille albums in her basement.

Yes...yes I do!

Worst Video of the Week

TGIF Bloggers!

I haven't quite come up with a new theme to replace the Drippin' with Cheeze series, but a fellow blog pal - Poetikat turned me on to this little gem!

What do you get when you mix: The Brady Bunch, ABBA, Grease and the Saturday Night Fever all in one?

One horrifically bad video!

As soon as "the dancers" come across the screen you immediately cringe. They start off with a number that looks a bit like a 1970's gym class! Then the sea of derange dancers part and you see the father for all of the children of the Village of the Damned.



What a manly man he is in his tight bell bottoms, white puffy shirt and gold chains! Yeeeowwzzzzaaaa!

He is joined later by a woman that I am guessing they were trying to dress up as Sandra Dee.

You can't keep your eyes off the dancers though...it's just mesmerizing.

At about 1:38 on the video...the guy in the front makes a move that would have made John Travolta swoon!

And the song...well...Kat warned me...because once it's in your brain...it sticks there and no matter how many times you listen to anything else...you mysteriously start humming it all over again.

It's a plague on humanity!





Pay attention to the very end....what are the dancers eating?

Ok...one more...

...because this is just THE best!

Mary Ann is caught with Maryjane.

Dawn Wells aka Mary Ann from Gilligan's Island was arrested for possession of marijuana!

Apparently she was swerving and not keeping a steady speed...whatever.

The best part is the arrest photo:




Is this hysterical or what? You don't need to test her for drugs..you can just TELL that she's stoned! She looks absolutely delighted to get her picture taken for the mug shot! That right eye is drooping just a little too!

If anyone walks by her with a bag of potato chips they're a gonner!

I always liked Mary Ann...she was a cutie!

Still is!

News with a straight face

I think that If I were a TV or Radio News Announcer I would have a lot of difficulty delivering this news without cracking up:

Here is the headline:

Don't you wish you could get great grant money to conduct studies like this?

Man hides sex toys in the wurst way

I love this story!!!

BERLIN (Reuters) - Staff at a German butcher's shop were shocked to discover a customer had hidden two sex toys in their sausages for transport to Dubai, police said Wednesday.
"It was two latex dildos with a natural look," said a spokesman for police in the southwestern city of Mannheim.
After shopping there earlier in the day, the man, who spoke broken English, returned to the butcher's with two large "Schwartenmagen" sausages. He asked a shop assistant to wrap and cool them until he departed for Dubai the next day.
But the assistant noticed the goods had got heavier and alerted police. Officers discovered the man, who was about 50, had removed some of the meat and packed the dildos inside.
"He could have used a loaf of bread," the spokesman said. "It's not against the law here. But obviously I can't speculate on what customs in Dubai will have to say about it."
