Creepy Dwarfs

Alright.....Who creeps you out more.......The Munchkins from the "Wizard of Oz"?......or the Oompah-Loompahs from "***** Wonka & The Chocolate Factory"?......(the original Gene Wilder one...not the new Johnny Depp nonsense). Personally, the "Lollipop Guild" Munchkins would probably get my vote, and I'd squeal like a schoolgirl and run away if surprised by any of them in a dark alley....(haha)....

Alright...I know, I know...this is a silly post, but no more silly than the "Mary Ann vs Ginger" debate that was posted not too long ago...(I answered that one too.....I need to get a life!)

I remember when the Macdonalds trucks had painted on them
"Over A Million Burgers Sold".
Wonder how many they have sold now?

Short story to answer this one. A couple of weekends ago, I decided to play some football with my 2 boys and some of their friends, all between age 10-13. After getting my rearend handed to me most of the game, I realized being a 31 year old smoker and drinker really doesn't have any benifits. So to answer your question, the dwarfs I am afraid of are the ones that look like helmets on legs. Those tough little pee wee football dwarfs and my sons. LOL
