Funny

Tonight Jackson and I got sucked into watching a special on Walter Cronkite. I hate those things because no matter who it is that died I always cry. I annoy myself with that trait. Anyway, as we were watching the special they talked about Woodstock. I had never really heard much about Woodstock so we were intrigued. They showed pictures on the special of hippies with signs. They were funny. This lead Jackson to tell me about a funny sign he saw one at the Indy 500 (a HUGE car race- for those of you who do not know) when he was about 12. He had gone to the race with his Mom and Dad. They passed by a camper with a poster in the window that read, "FREE ORAL MAMMOGRAMS!" Jackson turned to his Mom and asked if he wanted one of those. She assured him that he did not. I died laughing. Classic! He also told me about how growing up his Dad had a t-shirt that read, "5 cent mustache rides" that he used to always beg his Dad to wear and could never understand why he wouldn't take it out of his closet. Ah! I loved it! Too funny. What a sweet, innocent little boy that Jackson must have been. HA!! ;)

Oh, how funny. I do not remember the track incident but I sure remember the shirt. Aa far as I know Jackson was a good "boy".

Oh my goodness! I don't know if I wanted to hear those slogans. I'm way too visual. :-p Hilarious, nonetheless.
