Ok, I am going out on a limb here, but whenever I read about people who have reached "Onederland" (and good for them! I hope to get there in about 6 weeks), I can't help but think of the movie "That Thing You Do!" about the fictional boy band "The Wonders". Remember that they started out as the "Oneders" and people even ended up mispronouncing their band name: "O-Need-Ers".

Wow, I sure do hope someone remembers this, or the embarrassment shall haunt me for a long time....:embarassed:

    Thank you, thank you k8blujay2! I re-read my entry after posting and thought, "Wow, I sound like an idiot!". Now at least one person thinks I'm not! :bigsmile:

    Oh yeah, this is a great movie!! Especially the scene where the kids first hear their song played on the radio in the father's appliance store. Their enthusiasm is so genuine. This was the first movie that Tom Hanks ever directed. And, anything with Steve Zahn (the shorter blonde-haired goofy one) can't be all bad.
