BOO!!! We Have a Wiener!!!


Mr. James Patrick Farrell was the first correct answer this week.....
with the one and only Linda Denise Blair.
Or as he calls her....
"Scariest Bitch Ever"!!
Either answer would have been correct.

Which is funny because if I recollect....
both Jim and Mr. Kevin O'Connor never made it through
the whole movie and had to run out several times during their
first screening....all the while, Mr. Yanahan stayed,
laughed and ate all of their popcorn.
For this reason alone.....
I have never seen it...or will.

My Mom has a great story which also affirms my reason never to see it.
Her and my Dad were leaving the late showing of the Exorcist at the old Ford City
Theaters and were walking to their car when all of a sudden all of the power to the mall and parking lot.....went out!!
FFFFFUUUUUUCCKCKCKCKKCKCKCKK!

It gets better.....
When they get home.....
the large 5' x 5' framed art on the living room wall falls off of the wall!!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Then.....
Linda Blair was eating grilled cheese sandwiches at our kitchen table....
OK....so maybe I made up that last part but damn.....
Freddie Krueger's
got nothin' on Linda Blair!!

This pic below still gives me the creeps and I haven't seen the movie!!


Anywhooooos......
back to Mz. Blair.

--Big fan of the Lynyrd Skynyrd......attended their funerals.
--Busted for conspiracy to sell Coke a few weeks later.
--Dated Rick James bitch!......what a super freak.
--Has chickens and horses as pets in her home.
--Fluent in Spanish......and in Devil.
