tomorrow i am giving a talk in church on fatherhood. yikes.
today i asked brandon how much he'd pay me to recite our favorite scene from the ghost and mr. chicken instead of actually saying something spiritual. he didn't think it was such a good idea.

but i gotta tell you, the longer it takes me to think of something insightful, the more tempted i become...
Hey! I have to speak as well. Luckily I spoke last year on Father's Day (yeah), so I will just be using the same talk. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteSo bummed that I'm going to miss your talk! Good luck! And this whole Style-athon thing? holy crap that's huge! I can't wait to see what you come up with, especially since slings are all the rage right now, and I just can't wait until i have a baby to wear one.

ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, can I just tell you how amazing that is that you know the Ghost and Mr. Chicken? You just won bonus points my dear ;) Good luck with the talk!

YES!!!! The Ghost and Mr Chicken is the most underrated movie EVER. The Farrelly Brothers movie Kingpin has a homage to it, although it's buried in the midst of a lot of VERY not-family-friendly stuff! You can never go wrong letting Don Knotts be your guide. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteThis is totally unrelated to your post, I was reading an older one and saw your stroller with the bassinet thingy on it...Which stroller do you have? (and baby is facing you too) Do you like it?
ReplyDeleteThank you!

ReplyDelete(sorry about the removal: I needed to insert a clarification!)
ReplyDeleteI cannnnnot believe you dug up this splendid bit from TG&MC, the scariest movie in the whole wide world when I was about 9 years old. Although, in that same era, I'm also pretty sure I saw Night of the Living Dead in a theater when I was spending the night with my friend. ANYWAY I just laughed my way through that clip. If only you would do a reprise of it at church! I guarantee the father's in the audience would get a giant charge out of this homage (pronounce that the French way, it's better).
LOVE Don Knotts! And I'm sure you will be amazing. You've got this girl!
ReplyDeletei'd be totally okay with this. you have my permission. just please make some sort of video documentation.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck! you'll rock
ReplyDeleteWe're seriously tempted to come down to the City to watch/support, but we've already got plans to go up and meet with my dad. Any other day. Good luck with your talk! We're talking next week - Isa about her conversion story and me on the sealing power. (We just got sealed a month ago. Yay!)
ReplyDeleteanyway you can video it if you do ghost and mr chicken? seriously would love to see that among many other readers.
ReplyDeleteThank you for knowing about the ghost and mr. chicken. Sometimes I tell my husband about movies like that, that I watched as a kid and he thinks I'm INSANE.
ReplyDeleteone of my favorite moments! His karate hands bring me to tears every time!
ReplyDeletelet me clarify - I meant favorite MOVIES
ReplyDeleteDon Knotts is one of my all-time favorite comedians!! Hope your fatherhood speech went awesomely. Of course, you got chosen for this speech since you live with The HolbsDaddy! :-)
