I did the same kind of research. Later happened to sub in a home ec class where they had that kind of broom--and it stands on end no matter what day it is. It just looks weird! So you're definitely not alone! P.S.-I saw London and France, too, but two countries makes a lot more sense! I don't think kids SEE underpants as much since they quit wearing those stupid dresses all the time! ;)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02141883867104777688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-64345404315098694682010-08-26T13:35:33.567-05:002010-08-26T13:35:33.567-05:00you are invited to follow my blogyou are invited to follow my blogSteve Finnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15041851737677873347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-25558177394537748602010-08-26T04:58:02.453-05:002010-08-26T04:58:02.453-05:00Hi Donna - For me it was "I see England, I se...Hi Donna - For me it was "I see England, I see France, I see someone's underpants!"

I'm glad you posted this; I do enough stuff on my own to embarrass myself. (The last three letters of the word "embarrass"---so fitting.)<br /><br />It is amazing what things will trigger memories. Sometimes a smell, sometimes a sound, somethings just a phrase. When you spoke of monkey bars, I remembered spending so much time on them, I got huge blisters. I always tried to avoid popping them open but invariably, pop they would.<br /><br />That was during the good ol' days when dodgeball and Red Rover could still be played...Sioux Roslawskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17924021828536277618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-55191825497611521842010-08-25T19:33:20.867-05:002010-08-25T19:33:20.867-05:00I found you blog hopping.

I also take care of a disabled daughter, and have written a book that's under contract.<br /><br />My daughter, born in 1965, remembers: "I see Paris, I see France, I see someone's underpants." She thinks this is from my day (I was born in 1940!). I kind of remember it...<br /><br />So interesting the Mars thing. I no longer pass things like this along, especially when they're on the Internet. I have embarrassed myself at times!<br /><a href="http://ann-jen.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"><i>Ann</i></a>Ann Besthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14628616245339887301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-15531522225313363692010-08-25T15:13:10.694-05:002010-08-25T15:13:10.694-05:00Still sounds like a fun thing to check out! :)Still sounds like a fun thing to check out! :)Jemi Fraserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02214408467456320167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4198335440945057072.post-29296895876299468122010-08-25T15:04:53.720-05:002010-08-25T15:04:53.720-05:00Hi Linda,
