Very funny...but, hey, suspenseful, too! I loved it! You were much bolder than I'd ever be. However, your tale did remind me of "the frozen Coke" incident experienced by my sister and me. We used to put a bottle of Coke in the frezer a couple of hours before watching Shock Theatre on Saturday night, because--you know--all soft drinks are better partially frozen. I have since learned the art of opening a frozen drink, but I was naive in my youth. When I popped off the bottle cap too quickly, liquid cola spewed on the ceiling, curtains over the sink...just about everywhere. Our sleeping parents heard nothing, but the kitchen was a mess. I panicked, but my teenaged sister was eerily calm. She told me to clean up the counter and floor while she washed the curtains in the sink, ironed them dry, and mounted them on the rod again (later, she told me she considered using the dryer in the basement, but decided it'd wake the parents). Mission accomplished, we finished the movie and the parents were never wiser. My sweet sister had bailed out, as she would do a couple of more times in my youth.Rick29https://www.blogger.com/profile/08358116647815569722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5344878851139332715.post-21825215709699372612011-11-20T03:43:59.203-05:002011-11-20T03:43:59.203-05:00Sark, you made me remember similar experiences as ...Sark, you made me remember similar experiences as a kid when I would sneak downstairs at 2:00 in the morning to catch a movie. I don't know why, but watching alone on the sly is more fun than doing it when you are allowed to. It's like seeing a favorite movie starting on TCM, even though you have your own copy you could watch any time. There is something special about just catching it and watching it that way. <br /><br />I've never seen either of the movies you mentioned -- when I was that age, I had 4 channels to choose from, and channel 4 was the one who ran movies very late. Thanks for a well-written and funny trip down memory lane!ClassicBeckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03591715859057540467noreply@blogger.com
