Dee and I learned some Lolly trivia this morning... Thought I would share it with you.
Lolly was one of the first to experience the Pirates Of The Carribean Ride at the Disneyland Park, in fact he was 5th in line.
That was back in 1967. Apparently, the ride did not go well. It stopped in the middle of the ride, and they had to get off of it. It stopped here:
I was a one year old. Damn.. I never went to Disneyland when I was young. I had to wait until I was 20! Gee.. BUT, they have since remodeled it, and it's better, because now it features Johnny Depp!
Looks alot like him in the picture, but in close up, it doesn't give Johnny justice in my opinion. (I got this picture from Google..it isn't mine. You aren't supposed to take pictures on the ride, but of course everyone in my boat was when I went on.)
Oh and another thing.. Never send out Lolly out to buy towels. Apparently, his mom sent him out to buy some towels at the Macy's white flower day sale, and he had to literally snatch towels from UNDERNEATH a Vietamese man who decided to throw himself on top of a rack of towels to save them all for his wife who was shopping for flannel sheets.
"He kept on saying, "mine! mine!" but I didn't care. My mom needed towels, and I wasn't leaving the store without a dozen of them!"
What a good son.
I think Lolly is trying to impress us girls. What do you think?

i am SO confused. Who is Lolly? That first pic WOULD scare little kids!! Looks like convicts for sure. Depp sure is a pretty boy.

Don't know how you've been putting up Lolly, is he still your co-worker? Seemed to have some pretty antiquated ideas bout women. Maybe he sees the light? CATHY
