"Stephen, Don't Take a Picture of This"

One last, little piece of Hilton Head fun, as the temperature in Chicago plunges into the 40's and my skin returns to its usual "Crypt Keeper" white.

Mama thought I was taking a picture, not a little video clip. So, I captured about 39 seconds of pure, unfiltered Wanda. The first sentence out of her mouth says it all...



Her birthday is tomorrow. She'll be 61 years old. Happy birthday, Mama.

P.S. If she finds out that I posted this video on YouTube, I may not live to see another birthday, so let's keep it quiet, okay?

Oh my god, she has your laugh.
Or, I guess, you have hers!
Delightful.

Stephen,

it's been real nice knowing you...

She's going to MURDERIZE you! :)

And congrats to you. I haven't heard an accent like hers since I was home in SC in 2005... you really DID break out of the mold... almost. (like me)

Happy Birthday Mom!

Where's the vid of your brother takin' a shower?

Happy Birthday Mom! (Mine would have been the same age--only hers was in June.)

Jennifer Connelly threated to stick my video camera in the same place once. They never really follow through...

I am in love with the woman! "Blass her hort."

And your brother... dear lord. Is he single? And maybe interested in a 43 year old, slightly overwight, funny, talented, intellectual northerner?

Just askin'.
