The other day out on the lake Sam and I saw a boat full of teenage girls in bikinis driving by. Sam's head followed them as long as we could see them and I thought to myself, oh, my baby is growing up into a man, but then he said, "Did you see that motor? I think it was a Johnson 215 horse! Nice!" I said, "Ha ha, Sam, good one!" and he said, "What?" and I said, "Seriously?" and he said, "What???"
Which I suppose is totally normal considering that when Mitch was a kid and was obsessed (like all kids were) with The Dukes of Hazzard, he couldn't understand why, after Daisy smashed her fast car and got a lame Jeep, she was still on the show. What a waste of screen time that would be better spent with the General Lee jumping over yet another bridgeless ravine! (Hazzard County was a dump sadly in need of better infrastructure.)
And the other day we discovered that both of our parents had this album:
And we both vividly remember the cover. I remember it because I thought, OMG, I think that lady is NAKED under there! That's kind of risque! And Mitch remembers because he wondered if she got to eat all the whip cream after the photo shoot.
