At least she's got some dance moves...

It's kind of hard to tell because of his tiny hands, but Kenny Baker is ushering in a new era for the Thumbs Up Special - Video! (hopefully). So without further ado, I give you this travesty:



Now, in this poor girl's defense, surely there was some sort of malfunction of the tape (8 track?) player which caused the recording to speed up and change key...surely. But this thumbs up actually goes to anyone and everyone, family, friends, etc., who saw this poor girl prepare this routine for months and then subsequently let her do it on TV. Shame on them - I can tell you from experience that it's easy to get a terrible idea, think it's great and want to go through with it. It is the responsibility of those around you to weigh the possible outcomes and decide if they should let you proceed with what will likely be a humbling experience, or to save you from a lifetime of embarrassment like this girl (now woman) has to suffer through. Even without considering the obscene "music" of this performance, nobody with a soul would have let their daughter/sister/friend hop around stage like that. For that I say, "Thumbs up on that family/friends of that girl - was it worth it?"
