Saturday 9

Ain't That a Kick in the Head?




Saturday 9: Ain't That a Kick in the Head?

Unfamiliar with this week's featured song? Hear it here.


1) In the song, Dean sings, "Ain't That a Kick in the Head?" to express how delighted he is to discover the girl loves him. When was the last time you were pleasantly surprised?

The other night at dinner, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that my daughter says the Pledge of Allegiance every day at school.  I didn't know they were doing that.


2) Martin was born Dino Paul Crochetti, and his family only spoke Italian at home. Do you speak any language other than English?

Only what we've learned from Dora and Kai-Lan :)

3) Before he became an entertainer, Martin fought under the name "Kid Crochett." Do you watch boxing? What about wrestling?

I have been known to get into WWE.

4) This song appeared in the original Ocean's 11 (1960). That film was remade in 2001, with basically the same plot -- a group of suave criminals knock over the casinos on the Vegas Strip. Why  do you think so many movies feature crooks and con men as  heroes?

As someone who loves the Ocean's movies, I love seeing the "tricks" and plots to pull a heist on the casinos.  George Clooney, Matt Damon and Brad Pitt...who cares what their doing as long as they're doing it together on screen for me to drool over! :)

5) Crazy Sam's college sweetheart took over his family's wholesale liquor business, married a woman named Helene and has two sons. How does she know this? She checked his Facebook page on the sly. Have you ever used the internet to look up an ex?

I've had an ex look me up and apologize for being such an ass while we were together...ha ha! 

6) As she writes this week's meme, Sam is sipping from a Big Bang Theory cup that features  Sheldon's face and the word, "Bazinga!" Tell us about your favorite mug or water bottle.

I had a mug made up that has my kids pictures all over it with the words love, family, faith and hope in between the pictures.

7) Are you a good judge of character?

I think so.

8) Do you know how to turn a somersault?

Yes.  I don't know if I dare try it anymore though!

9) Which one do you use -- roll-on, stick or spray deodorant?

Stick.

  1. I think most schools still do the pledge. Who knows....

  2. Question #4 got me thinking -- the best looking actors do seem to enjoy playing rogues every now and again, don't they?

  3. Harriet ~ I was under the impression that they had stopped because of the line "one nation, under God." I recently heard that most schools are doing it again though.
