Madonna, Atlantic City, and Armpits...

Photobucket

Frequently I come out with some preposterous claims. One of these includes the theory that I may have invented the "screen shot" or "screen grab" as it's commonly known. As soon as Desperately Seeking Susan was available on VHS, Momma Armpit brought me home a copy because she knew I wanted it. I watched it over and over marveling at the fact that I could keep rewinding my favorite scene and watch it over and over. Believe it or not, my favorite scene wasn't seeing Rosanna Arquette's boobs, nope, as nice as they are, I was more interested in a scene most of you probably quickly forgot about. 

My favorite scene comes when Madonna is in the Port Authority bathroom looking super sexy in her hot pink mesh Atlantic City shirt. She walks over to the hand dryer and raises her arms to dry her armpit. Now, contrary to popular belief, I do not have an armpit fetish so get this out of your head right away. The name of the site might mislead you, but I just think it's a funny scene. I wouldn't doubt that Madonna actually came up with that herself because she's really perverse.

Anyway, I took my 35MM Vivitar camera (that I still own!) and took a few snapshots of the TV screen while this scene was playing. My mom went to get the film developed and as she was going through the pics of the family gatherings and events there were also 2 or 3 shots of Madonna air drying her armpits. Classic.

I think I may have beaten you to it ... my best friend and I took and entire roll of pics of Billy Idol's "White Wedding" video on MTV(using a 110 camera, no less).

That ate up a good portion of our allowances on film and double prints :) :)

LOL! OMG that is so funny! Of course this begs the question, what happened next?

That's hilarious. As far as I'm concerned you invented the screenshot.

Funny, that's the ONLY scene from the movie I remember.
