This image is from the 1993 movie The Sandlot which is ostensibly about baseball, but is more about friendship, life, and growing up. It is tells the story of a group of friends in 1962 suburban California who meet at the local sandlot every day during the summer to play pick up baseball: the adventures they have and the problems they face. In this scene, the boys go to the fair and one of them has the bright idea to bring along a chaw of tobacco which they all partake in before climbing on one of the carnival rides. This ends badly, as the tobacco combined with the fast-moving ride causes the boys to become violently ill, projectile vomiting not only over themselves, but over a lot of other people on the ride as well.

"We have an obligation to read aloud to our children. To read them things they enjoy. To read to them stories we are already tired of. To do the voices, to make it interesting, and not to stop reading to them just because they learn to read to themselves. Use reading-aloud time as bonding time, as time when no phones are being checked, when the distractions of the world are put aside." - Neil Gaiman Where Did It Come From? |
About MeI'm a lover of good books, classic movies, and well-written shows (as well as some pretty cheesy ones, to be completely honest). Categories
