It took a lot of sculpting gel, hair glue AND hairspray to get it to stand up like that all day. Ahh those were the days! <br />Needless to say the kids will never see photographs of their mommy like that!

It's funny how times have changed in some ways, but have stayed the same in others. You're right though about TV allowing more graphic stuff on prime time! I don't recall ever seeing nudity on TV or hearing swear words. They were all bleeped out during the hours when kids may be still up. I think it wasn't until after midnight when all the R rated stuff was on. I heard one of the characters on an episode of Degrassi the Next Generation say the word "b*tch" and I was shocked! LOL! Whenever we watch movies with Pook and Toad, I'm always so conscious of words those little ears may pick up. Kids are like sponges. They hear something once and it's burnt into their memories - as long is it's something they're not meant to hear! LOL! Like all the bad words! But if it's something you're trying to tell them, some kids magically seem to have selective hearing...husbands too! LOL! Gosh, I'm so glad our nieces are angels! ;p My students, on the other hand...j/k! :) <br /><br />I was driving last year in the middle of a snow storm and my vehicle started skidding all over the highway and I freaked out because I thought I was going to end up in the ditch. I yelled "SH*T!!!!" and none of the students said anything. When we got home, one of the students said, "Sh*t! I forgot my homework!" I told him not to say that word because it wasn't polite, and he said, "But you said it in the van!" LOL! Busted!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09251507898309184477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-35115541895792042482006-12-13T23:11:00.000-05:002006-12-13T23:11:00.000-05:00The girls in the new Degrassi are so skanky! They ...The girls in the new Degrassi are so skanky! They all wear their pants way too low and they're all a bunch of walking hormones! Wait. Wasn't the original Degrassi like that too? For some reason the newer Degrassi seems more in your face and openly sexual. Don't you think? I don't recall the old episodes being so nasty. A peck on the lips perhaps, but no serious groping. TV has changed a lot in the past few decades with regard to what you're allowed to show on TV.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22578035.post-786413676843049132006-12-13T22:37:00.000-05:002006-12-13T22:37:00.000-05:00Dude, I had a bunch of DJH videos sent up to me h...Dude, I had a bunch of DJH videos sent up to me here.
