It never ceases to amaze me how we can communicate with others of our generation via music and movie dialogue. No matter where we are from and where we are now, if we were born sometime between 1959 and 1971 (I only include that because of Sharis who is an appalling 36...I believe the youngest of my friends) we can immediately sing the next line of a song, identify the movie a line is from and give the next line of dialogue.
Our children think this is really bizarre.
Last week my friend's daughter Casey was missing us because we were still in North Carolina for the summer. She sent me an e-mail and at the end she said, "Here come those tears again"...I told her to go to her mother and say that and I guaranteed her mother could come up with the next line. Casey asked if it was from sappy love song and I said no. Anyone got the next line, artist and album?
Yesterday, my friend Stacy was standing in front of the refrigerator with the door open and my daughter said, "What are you doing?" She replied, "You know, that's the problem with these things. You have to watch them every minute." She assured Haley that I would know the line, the next line and the movie. Anyone?
