I know what you people want.
You want to see me in pigtails, jumping up and down, sporting a bizarre lisp!
Fine, then.
You can thank my brilliant husband and his friends for this video, which was made approximately 90 years ago.
Happy Easter!

Pigtails, schmigtails: you're really cute.

Normally, I skip right over videos because of my horrible internet connection. But- how could I miss pigtails and a lisp?
I couldn't.
And it was worth it. Oh yes, it was.

Your husband & friends, if they're responsible for this idea, are HILARIOUS. Your pigtails and lisp are adorable. Was that a stunt cat? :)

Funny. A good way to start the first morning of school holidays. (Yippee!)

I believe I'm about to incorporate "Thanxth, Jerry the Low-Flying Man!" into my clever quip rotation. So funny.

That better not be Sherman at the end there.

Sadly, those pigtails are exactly what my daughter sported for the first 5 years of her bald little life.

Quote from my husband: "What the hell are you watching?"
F*cking hilarious. Thank you, Low-Flying Man!

The experience of trying to say "it's not a bird" with the correct intonation at the beginning of this video is what led me to discover that I have no talent for acting. The video is still funny and fun to watch, though. Shparkles!

And Easter is now made....
Posted by: The Dreadpirate | March 21, 2008 at 01:14 AM
That was fantastic and should be internationally required viewing.
Posted by: Sarah | March 21, 2008 at 06:45 AM
That was AWESOME.
Posted by: Sonja | March 21, 2008 at 07:51 AM
That was quite entertaining!

Okay, I watched this the first time and my 3 year old came in the room and demanded to see it again...and again and now she's pissed because I'm writing you instead of re-playing it. So, I just wanted to say thanks in advance for the 45 times I'm going to get to see your movie today.
Happy Easter to you, too!

I have nothing to say but, "Thank you."

Oh, too funny. Way too funny. Snort.

Awesome!

If I could favourite a post,I will. Instead, I will bookmark it and watch it over and over again on youtube. AWESOME.

Hilarious. Thanks for taking my mind off the goddamn snow for a couple minutes.
Posted by: Amy the Mom | March 21, 2008 at 12:29 PM
Very funny.
Posted by: Jenn @ Juggling Life | March 21, 2008 at 12:59 PM
Jesus, that is hysterical! I'm snorting while trying not to laugh here at work and people are starting to stare. Cheers!
Posted by: Brooke | March 21, 2008 at 01:17 PM
Oh my god.
Awesome doesn't begin to cover it.
:-)
Thanks for the laugh!

I wish there were a hundred more episodes of Jerry The Low-Flying Man because I would Tivo every one.
Posted by: Nothing But Bonfires | March 21, 2008 at 07:15 PM
Very funny.
Posted by: cc | March 21, 2008 at 07:19 PM
Ah, Brooklyn!!!
Great sketch! SNL could use ya'll as freelancers.
Who will Jerry save next?

When might we see your work as a randy, penniless French milkmaid?

My 13 year old son proclaimed this video EPIC!
Posted by: SarahO | March 22, 2008 at 12:34 AM
That was hilarious!
Posted by: Mauigirl | March 22, 2008 at 02:53 PM
I have three things to say-
1. That video was all kinds of awesome.
2. You are completely adorable.
3. That was better than 95% of every sketch on SNL.
Thanks for sharing!

Based on the brilliance of that video, I think my husband has a man-crush on your husband.
Posted by: Tammy | March 23, 2008 at 08:48 AM
you know, you in pigtails, jumping up and down, sporting a bizarre lisp was actually *exactly* what i wanted to see. how did you know?
Posted by: smackdown | March 23, 2008 at 12:23 PM
I always thought you were cute, but now that I know how freaking old you are, you are looking mighty fine for a centenarian.
Posted by: schmutzie | March 23, 2008 at 01:33 PM
Things of this nature are what I live for, and why I thanks the stars in heaven above for the gift of the internet.
My new catchphrase is "I've no time to lose!!!"
Posted by: Tammy's Husband | March 23, 2008 at 08:22 PM
Perfect in every way.
And my 15-yr old son wants to be Jerry, The Low-Flying Man for Halloween this year.
Posted by: Christi | March 24, 2008 at 02:10 AM
Truly, truly this is genius. Toward the end, the shot of Jerry stuck in traffic? The crowning glory of the whole video. (I mean, of course, *besides* that bit with you in pigtails, sporting a bizarre lisp...)
Posted by: Amy | March 24, 2008 at 10:53 AM
Too. Many. Awesome. Things.
Can't. Comment. On. All. Of. Them.
Must. Forward. To. All. My. Coworkers.
Posted by: Aimee Greeblemonkey | March 25, 2008 at 06:46 PM
LOL! Hilarious.
The cat cuddle was a nice touch.
