I remember almost all of 'em...
"Francie Dolls legs bend" is a mystery to me, but maybe I can take a pass on that one?
I worked at the Beehive for a year and was the only employee there from about 6 to 10 P.M., as a 15 year old!
And "Popping the bubbles in the hot asphalt with your bike tires"?
It was 92 degrees here today and riding to make a bank deposit I popped a bunch of tar bubbles with my bicycle tires!
Francie's were like Barbie Dolls except you could bend their knees. And I specifically remember C&C was so fascinated with my Francie doll that the wires finally came out the back of the knees.
I'm sure he'll deny that one.
C'mon GB...you know you used that line in the locker room bragging about the date you had the night before.
And here I thought George was the only guy in the world molesting fashion dolls.
GB: Just in case you haven't caught on in the last few months that you've been "exposed" to our family....you are sooo out of your league on the smart a$$$$ comments.
Hope you have a thick skin. We love to tease and it's all in good fun.
Well, Cissy's kinda mean. I'll have to blog about the time she kicked me when I was little and C&C tore her shirt exposing her to our neighbor, but aside from that it's all in good fun.
