my ex mess up leaving a great guy like me :( we been together for 2 months and she end up talking about sex. i told her it too soon i wanna wait longer or better too wait till marry and she tell me how can we be together with out sex. so she broke up with me. since she broke up with me i knew right then she promble just wanna me for sex. cause sex is really not the meaning of love i want someone who love me for who i am.and how great there personally is. it hard too find the right girl:(
I am playing the Old Man in my city's community theatre this December. This is my first time on stage. Pretty easy preparing for a part that you have loved and seen multiple times every year. R.I.P. Darren McGavin.
XD Reminds me of a friend of mine. We have a wood stove that says Kalamazoo on the front doors. The word is split between M and A and he tryed to read what it said. For 20 minutes he couldnt understand that it was one word. He kept thinking it Kalam azoo. Didnt make sense to him. We all just laughed at him when i told him it was Kalamazoo in one word. XD I love my stupid dork friend :) he makes me smile.
I just gave my best friend the leg lamp for Christmas this year. She loved it and screamed with delight. The she put in on top of her piano which is right behind her front window.
My uncle got one of those for Christmas a few years back, and my little brother was watching him open it. And my uncle as a joke put the lamp in the front room of the house where the lamp could be seen by all the neighbors, and we went into the kitchen to put up the left-overs and when I came to the front room to put up my gifts, I saw my little brother rubbing the leg up and down, like Ralphie did.
Whatever happpened to Benjamin "Bob" Clark who was credited for directing and writing the script with Jean Shepherd? is it true he was killed in a car accident after being struck by a drunk illegal alien driver in california?
My husband and I love this movie, it's been a must-watch every Christmas since it came out. Several years ago we invested in one of these wonderful leg lamps, and it's the first Christmas decoration we put up (in our front window) the day after Thanksgiving. Our neighbors have gotten such a kick out of it that they bring their friends by to see it.
What they don't mention in this is why he is getting a leg lamp. The book says it's a Stocking company and the lamp was a representation of their company logo.
@jmr1068204 because he's got like 5 of those 3-way cube adapters plugged in there for all sorts of other stuff. He's plugging it into the only remaining spot on the top of the adapter. That's why the outlet blows up. One plug too many.
It didn't come from his job. He entered one of those prize sweepstakes drawings and won. So it was the numbskulls at the company that held the sweepstakes that got the dimensions wrong. BUT I guess that is creative Movie Making License for you. The large box just ads more drama to the film (for first time watchers). How MAJOR could a Major Award be if it is in a tiny box, but something in the size of a refrigerator? That gets the viewer wondering. It's just classic, I watch it every year.
I have a leg lamp in my front window at Christmas. It's even funnier when guests don't know what it is and don't get the joke. When asked, I always tell them it is a fine piece of art from Frigille france.
I was walking with my friend tonight, and saw someone had this lamp in their front window!!
So, I had to go ask where they got it. They said it was a wedding gift, because they got married in the house this was filmed in! There is a gift shop there, and they give tours!! AWESOME!!!
