      @LazyIRanch Před 2 lety +5

      My SIL's sister worked at the studio that made "Barney" and "Wishbone" (Wishbone was actually pretty good). She invited my son and me to a special party for staff and family/friends where Barney appeared an put on a show for a much smaller audience than his live shows that were sold out back in the 90s. My son was 3, and HATED Barney so he wanted nothing to do with him. He was fascinated by the sound mixing board and the guy controlling sound and lights, though. That guy was so nice, he let my son flip some switches, much to his delight. My son told the sound/light guy that he thought Barney was "stupid", which cracked the man up. I think he agreed, but I'm sure the pay was good!

    The first time I saw Chris Redd on SNL, it was a "musical performance" skit they were doing. I thought he was a "musical guest", just "helping out" with this skit. It wasn't until a few weeks later (after seeing him, repeatedly) that I realized he's not a "musical guest", but an actual member of the cast. I'm not sure if it was his "musical talents" or his "acting ability" that caused me to think he was an actual "musician", but either way, I think he's a fairly "bad ass dude".

      It's considered the polar opposite of white.
      It's the predominant color at funerals and formal occasions.
      It's not really a color, but is in fact the absence of color.
      It goes with almost everything you wear.
