I Like ’em Big and Stupid

From the 1989 cult classic Julie Brown flick
Earth Girls are Easy.
A phenomenon that presented itself to me
many times as I was growing up.
Getting dumped by women who preferred
Tarzan was a common occurrence.
I was close.
Remember Cheeta, the Chimpanzee that he
used to hang with?
That was ME…

Nun Scene

From the classic 1980 John Landis flick,
The Blues Brothers.
I grew up Catholic.
I did all the things you were supposed to do,
even training to be an alter boy.
This scene made me shiver.
Going up those stairs, with the creaking
floorboards and the long scary walk full
of guilt and fear.
Been there, done that.
Jake and Elwood say/shout/scream a few naughty
words that got their knuckles anointed with a
penguin stick (ruler).
Avoid watching this piece if Sister Mary Punisher
is in the room.
I still have nightmares…
