    Yo ho! You need to freshen up your hairdo from that 1940’s look! Here, kitty kitty!

    Well, as a matter fact, yes, and it hurts like blazes. It’s not only the teeth, but those claws as well. I’m going to stop talking now because it’s so painful.

    Anita Ekberg recounting her experience in the famous Trevi Fountain scene:


    “I will never forget until I die. It was January and the water of the Trevi Fountain was freezing … I stepped into the water waiting for Marcello Mastroianni. You should not speak ill of the dead, but he didn’t want to join me because he was terrified of the cold,” she said.

    “In the end, he came with rubber fisherman’s waders under his costume, and tripped and fell face first into the icy water. He was taken back to the trailer, and his things were dried and ironed. He returned, still with the rubber waders under his suit, but he fell again.”

    Turning away is not as confronting as you suggest and this talk of your pussy and my tongue is just wishful thinking.

    Hey Gaijinrabbit
    That’s a great story and Anita is still amazing.

    Re: Classroom,
    Ah yes, the Tuesday morning duck and cover drill. Nothing like living in the ’50s in the middle of a dozen or more primary targets.

    Finally, I understand a Frog Applause. After years of pretending I got it, finally, I get it!! Thanks for dumbing one down for me, Teresa. (May I call you “Teresa”?)

    Maybe “confront” should be “confronts”. Goes better with the “yo”, ya know? (See how helpful I can be when I understand the caption?)

    That classroom is doing a nuclear bomb attack drill. It seems silly now, doesn’t it? Like all they wanted to do was induce terror and anti-Communist fervor in Americans. Because the only good thing to come out of getting into that position was that your lips would be closer to your @$$ to kiss it goodbye.

    That rosy rice ring looks tasty. Well, not really, but I’d eat it. Well, I’d eat just about anything, so I’m not a good point of reference.
