Kids don't try this at home.

My sister and I know a former kid that was in a full arm cast after this stunt and now he's a lawyer, so there definitely are lasting consequences.

Audrey Rose Georges turned one year old today.

Does anyone remember the video for this song. It was so stupid. The Banarama girls were being followed by a trucker and they threw some banana peels on his windshield -- like that would stop him. Any other '80s fans out there remember any more details? I still loved the group and still love the song. I actually have this single on vinyl -- just like the picture. Tomorrow will be a beast. Today the air conditioning was like the Little Engine that Could except this little engine never made it over the hill.
