Charlie And Candy Mountain

Not long ago, parents tossed baseballs and the pigskin in the backyard with their kids as they talked about life, hopes and dreams. These days, parents surf the net with their children and search YouTube for videos that make them laugh.

The embedded video is a favorite in The Film Geek's household. The girls have walked around for months chanting "Charlie...Let's go to Candy Mountain, Charlie," while my son laughs out loud as the video plays. None of them really understand the ending, but that's not important; we've all laughed for hours at this silliness.

Together.

Wait for it...wait for it...

Am I the only one who thinks the blue unicorn sounds like Michael Jackson and the pink one sounds like, I guess, Squeaky Fromme? Maybe it's the "hey, Charlie . . ." talk.

Think about it. It adds to the funny.

Sides. Hurt. Can't. Stop. Laughing.

The horses' voices are perfect and so was this as a start to the day. This has got to be the best YouTube video I've ever seen!!! Thanks for sharing, Film Geek.

That's just wrong! That's we what urge each other up here on the Hill--"Come on Ginnie, We're goin' to Candy Mountain!"

Why am I not surprised to find it here.....

Charlie was the entertainment last night at Savannah's party. It was a requirement that if you showed up, you had to watch.
