I have a new grandson and like many of you fathers or grandfathers we get introduced to a new word all over again. This one I did not see coming. My sister decided I needed this bedtime book here. It's a real book... My how times have changed, but I found this reading of it funny enough to share.

remember NSFW "Go the F k to Sleep"

He can go screw his-self.

It's funny.
Especially if you have had children, and you have had the "Now, GO the Fuck to Sleep!!!"

Glass of water, gotta potty, I'm hungry, What if something is under my bed, and all the other stall tactics.

And Christoper Walken reading The Three Little Pigs.

I can agree with you, cannot stand his opinions, and still find the reading a great match. The book isn't his, so it's not like either of us would go see his movies.

That's pretty good, but I like his reading of "Goodnight, Muhfuckin' Moon" much better.

"Goodnight, bitch-ass dirt farmer, with yo muhfuckin' pigs and chickens 'n shit..."

Yes the dreaded routine... The Jr DFs were relentless. They all had to do the four things: Jammies, brush teeth, go potty and say prayers. In return for thorough and expeditious completion of the four things, I would read them a story of their choosing. I kid you not, one year I read Tikki Tikki Tembo every night complete with sound effects and facial expressions. If I missed a sound effect or changed the story by one word, they'd catch it and make me go back. Bed time, IIRC, was 8. We had to get them started at 7. It was a zoo!

I lasted a min. and had to turn it off. Didn't think it was funny.

Only time I ever briefly bumped into him, we were lost in LA looking for the LaBrea Tar pits. Planning on taking the kids there. We were on Western ave, not far (couple of blocks) and not long after the Rodney King riots where the truck driver had been beaten senseless. I'd already asked 4 or 5 folks and no one had even heard of this very famous place.

I'd rented a Lexus. Bad part of town, no real map, no weapon, family in car. Pulled up at a light next to a car (which turned out to be a BMW that wasn't available for sale in the states) and I rolled my window down and signaled for the guy next to me to roll his down as well. He does, and the man looks familiar to me somewhat. I ask him: "Hi there, can you tell me where the Labrea Tar Pits are?" The dude starts laughing...and laughing. I see no humor and figure the lights going to change with me not getting an answer. He says: "I'm going right past it, follow me". "Thank you sir" I reply and off we go. I furrow my brow and say: "what the heck was so funny" (other than us looking like out of town rubes that fell of the turnip truck I suppose) Wife clues me in. "That was Samual L Jackson she says, and he was probably laughing cause he thought you were going to ask for an autograph". I'm thinking, "Thats right, that's why he looked vaguely familiar. Of course seeing it from Jackson's perspective made the whole car crack up. Couple miles down we're at a left turn signal, and Jackson rolled his window down and pointed to the sign that indicated our destination was right there. I waved my thanks as he kept going straight and we turned into the tar pits.

Best part of the whole trip was the tar pits, much better than Disneyland or any of that other crap. Kids thought so as well.

He was pretty funny putting down some TV interviewer, who confused him with, I believe, Laerence Fishburne. "What? Do we all look alike to you?"

There’s another similar one called “why the fuck won’t you eat” or something like that. Same people that made that one.

I like this bedtime story mo betta.

I'll pass. I do not utter obscenities, nor do I wish to listen to them. I will remove myself from the presence of those who overindulge in them.

I agree, there is too much profanity these days and it is one of the few items that I don't like on this forum. ... with that said, Samuel L Jackson was great in Pulp Fiction... I read or saw somewhere that if you add up the profits from all the movies he's been in they are about twice as much as any other big name star.

Of my two kids, my son was really hard to get to sleep. Last resort I would threaten to sing to him. No kidding. Worked every time. (If you heard me sing the "Che manina gelida" aria from La Boheme you would understand immediately.)
