In Memorium

In honor of the burial today of Anna Nicole Smith (AKA Vickie Lynn Hogan)

Back in 1994 I went to the movie with my husband, my mom and dad. We saw Naked Gun 33 1/3 at the old Academy Theater on University Ave (currently the park next to the Wells Fargo building).

Now my dad (being a bit hard of hearing in crowded places - and the theater was packed of course - it was a Naked Gun movie after all) asked for a set of headphones to hear the movie better.

All through the movie whenever my dad would speak it sounded like a shout - you know how it is when you have headphones on, right? Well midway through the movie, theater quiet and still, out walks Anna Nicole Smith on the screen. My dad in his best most loudest voice yells (unintentionally) "Look at those BOOBS!" The entire theater started laughing. My mom hid under the seat (where we had to unstick her after the movie) my husband had tears rolling down his face, and I, well I, I just really love my dad.

I wonder what they look like now, the same? I guess if they're fake they don't really go anywhere, she prolly had to be buried in a double wide.

I had no idea that old theater was equipped for people hard of hearing. That is truly outrageous.
