REMINDER – Movie Night with Bacon

 

We have movie night here at the Hotel Thompson often.  Every once in a while, I get to choose the movie. 🙂  It’s always a fun time when I get to because you just never know what I’m going to pick.

One week, I picked a scary movie.  Of course, I hid behind mom on the sofa behind her back and only peeked with one eye opened at the television screen occasionally.  Snorts.  It’s what I do.

But the other day, I found the bestest of all movies.  I don’t know how I’ve never seen this one before!  It was great.  It was wonderful.  It was right up my alley.  Nope, it wasn’t Charlotte’s Web or Babe – nothing like that.

So get out your popcorn and your soda and come back here tomorrow.  I’m going to break down the movie for you.  🙂  It should be a blast!

 

Top 6 Famous Pigs – Can You Guess Them?

I’ve done a lot of reserch lately on my kind. I’ve come across what I believe are the top 6 most famous pigs. I wonder if you recognize any of them? Let’s go down memory lane to see if you know at least one 🙂

NUMBER 6 – WILBUR

Everyone remembers this wonderful story from child hood. Saved from the slaughter house – shivers – by Fern, Wilbur grows from the runt of the litter to a prize winning pig.

Sounds kind of familiar with myself since once upon a time, I was a little runt as well. I like to think I’ve done good for myself. This story also has a fabulous looking spider named Charlotte in the novel.

She almost makes you think spiders are cute and adorable, you know.

 

NUMBER 5 – BABE

All Babe wanted to do was be a sheep dog so what did he do? He trained himself to herd sheep. That makes sense, doesn’t it? No one believed in him that he would succeed but he persevered.

He learned the secret language of sheep and his success and being a sheep pig was secured!

This movie is wonderful and very touching – makes you fall so deeply in love with this special oinker!

 

NUMBER 4 – MISS PIGGY

The piggy of my dreams – swoon! She is a blue eyed bombshell, all sweet and girlish on one side and on the other side ready to karate chop herself to the top.

What is there not to love about this gorgeous pig?!

When will she ever learn that the green Kermit is not for her and she should just come and live with me at the Hotel Thompson? We could make an awesome – wonderful team together!

 

NUMBER 3 – ARNOLD ZIFFEL

I’ve been watching this pig for a while now on Green Acres – he is right up there with my friend Maxwell. I love that he lives in Hooterville and does all of the things I like to do – watching TV and changing the channels, taking his lunch box in his mouth to school and painting pictures.

He was a little human pig… just like me! 🙂

Who would have ever thought I was a pig in training from Arnold?!

 

 

NUMBER 2 – PORKY PIG

“Th-th-th-that’s all folks!” This is one of my favorite cartoons to watch on my television in my bedroom at the Hotel Thompson. He has stuttered his way into my heart and home.

I think I have several DVD’s of his cartoons that I like to watch at night when I’m falling off to sleep. He’s great! He can carry his own show and be a side character. I just love this cartoon!

And, are you ready for the number 1 pig as a famous pig?

 

NUMBER 1 – ME OF COURSE!!

Did you honestly think I would pick anyone else? Snort chuckles.

I like to think that I’m famous. Maybe not anywhere else but here with my friends that I simple love and adore!

Thanks for going down memory lane with me.

XOXO – Bacon
