    Hey you two!!! I'm just now watching this video, and plus I have to watch your latest ones too. Have some catching up to do too, LOL. But yeah that was definitely another fun prom to watch. Loved the costumes and everything. I hadn't seen Sixteen Candles in years, but I do love that song that the Thompson Twins did.

    Wichita, Kansas was on NBC Nightly News last night about the Jackie Robinson bronze statue!

    Fun Fact: For a very brief time I was the tour guide for the Mignery Sculpture Garden in Bartlett, Nebraska, the country's largest bronze sculpture garden.

    Can’t believe it’s the 40th anniversary to Sixteen Candles this year! That’s crazy! Love that movie! Next year 2025 will be the 40th anniversary for the Breakfast Club!

    x Awesome costumes, just watched Sixteen Candles again last week!
    x Was anyone Duckette?
    o I watched the film Buffy The Vampire Slayer (1992), looked up her profile, and saw that she played Duckette in Pretty in Pink.

    The Geek:
    This is your car, Jake?

    Jake:
    No, this is my dad's car. You said you can't drive a stick.

    The Geek:
    This is a…! This is a Rolls Royce, Jake.

    Jake:
    So?

    The Geek:
    So? So? I heard the grill alone costs five grand on this. Five grand! Do you have five grand? I don't have five grand.

    Jake:
    Then don't hit anything.

    The Geek:
    Ha ha! Don't hit anything.

    One of my favorite dialogues. Couldn't imagine a cop not pulling over a Rolls Royce driven by a teen super late.😂

    What on earth was that movie with the p*nties?! I actually missed most of these movies somehow. I hated teenagers even when I used to be one, LOL!
