I had a boyfriend or two that my parents always referred to with a "That.." before the name. None were as endearing as "That Tod", though.
This month, Cheryl takes us back to 1989 and the wonderful ensemble film, Parenthood.
And of course, it's only fitting that this is today's Ass Friday pic..
thanks to Rhonda and kcrl

Posted by: Lori on January 3, 2003 11:29 AMThanx Rhonda & kclr indeed! Now I don't have to freeze-frame my old battered VHS-copy of it anymore :-) Oh, and the 'velvet' way he says 'salami' in this movie... -I know I am a perv- Phew.
Posted by: Julie on January 3, 2003 11:49 AMHe was definitely the best part of that movie. Plus, he got one of the more poignant lines:
"You know, Mrs. Buchman, you need a license to buy a dog, to drive a car - hell, you even need a license to catch a fish. But they'll let any butt-reaming asshole be a father."

Posted by: Grace on January 3, 2003 12:42 PMVariations of "That Tod" were common in households with teenage girls - I asked once why "That guy" preceded the various boyfriend's names. "Buying time," I was told. "So I don't call him the wrong name." Sounds plausible. They couldn't explain the disdainful inflection with which they said it though.
Love Tod. I also love the Grandma. I guess that's why I love roller coasters too.
