When I was living in Texas and going to seminary my wife wanted to see Stacey Orrico in concert. The concert was free and we were poor seminary students. We were so poor that we couldn’t pay attention. We were so poor we had to go to KFC and lick other people’s fingers. I kid, I kid.
We weren’t that poor but we didn’t have a lot of money so a free concert was appealing. The concert was at a mall about an hour away. We got there early and decided to go shopping.
We went with our friends Matt and Amy. Matt was also a seminary student. So here’s the scene. Girls are looking at clothes and the boys are about to run as fast as they can into the nearest hard object in order to knock themselves out. In other words we were bored of shopping. I figure that there is a movie store in the mall so Matt and I go on an adventure to find said movie store.
Once we find it we do a lap around the store. All is going well. Now I’m kind of a nerd so when I saw some action figures I immediately made my way towards them. While I’m looking at the action figures Matt pulls out a movie and says, “I love this movie! I used to watch it all the time as a kid.”
Now I turn around and expect to see something like Old Yeller, Willow, or even Duck Tales the Movie. Nope. Matt had in his hands “Flesh Gordon.” Now I immediately started laughing out loud. Here a pastor is holding up an adult film proclaiming that he loved this movie as a kid.
…To Be Continued…Later today…
Can’t wait to see where this goes.
Yea, I need to hear the end of this. By the way, I uses to think Orrico was my future wife…
…To Be Commented On…later today…

A skin flick in the local mall? Either times have changed, or there is more to this story. … Oh, what’s that you say? … This is just part 1? … Oh.

“We were so poor that we couldn’t pay attention.” That’s funny!
Say what? LOL.
So I had to read this a couple of times because I could not for the life of me figure the big deal about Flash Gordon. Ooooohhhhhh! One little vowel makes a big difference! Looking forward to the rest of the story!
Can’t wait to hear more! Sounds like you love the shopping mall about as much as my husband 🙂
Patiently waiting..
Rob, thanks to you I’ve been singing “Flesh….ahhhhhh…master of his universe” to the tune of Queen’s themesong to the Flash Gordon movie.
Larry, that’s funny stuff.
