So Superman is on TV... the old 1978 movie. They've made some amazing improvements in special effects since then. ;) But, I texted my sister, initially thinking it was Superman II, which lead to this blog post. My sister and I have had some random arguments over the years. I thought I'd tell you about a few of them.
The "Superman II" argument
When I was still fairly young, my dad built us a new house. While it was being built, we lived in a duplex in town and were able to get cable television for the first time ever. During that eighteen months, Superman II was on pretty much non-stop. In fact, we had ever line memorized. To be honest, I don't recall the exact argument. I think we fought about whether Lois Lane INTENTIONALLY or UNINTENTIONALLY fell into Niagara Falls and subsequently had to be rescued by Superman. Thinking back, it had to be intentional, because she was testing her theory as to whether her new husband, Clark Kent, was, in fact, Sueprman. So, surely that was my position in the argument. ;)
The "Cute, White Little Teddy Bear" Argument
My sister and I both claimed it. I couldn't even tell you where it is now. (She probably has it!)
The Infamous "Almond Peanuts" Argument
This one lives on. Michelle and I still argue about it. She was telling me one time about these new "almond peanuts," which, of course, made absolutely no sense to me. Finally it came out that she was really talking about the new "Almond M&Ms." She SWEARS she was saying "Almond M&Ms" the whole time, but I don't believe her. Which would confuse you more... "almond peanuts" or "Almond M&Ms." Really.
I'm sure we've had more arguments than that, but these are my favorite, mostly unresolved, arguments. :) Love you, Sis!
Ah... Superman is finally SUPERMAN. Let the fun begin!
