Frankie

[Partymember]

OMG!!! Cass you are the master of Frankie-worship...all hail High Priest Cassini!!!

how i feel about Frankie:

I'm sleeping
And right in the middle of a good dream
like all at once I wake up
From something that keeps knocking at my brain
Before I go insane
I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed
Screaming out the words I dread:
"I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

This morning, I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with
And so I just decided to myself
I'd hide it to myself
And never talk about it
And didn't I go and shout it
When you walked into my room.
"I think I love you!" (I think I love you)

I think I love you
So what am I so afraid of?
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of
A love there is no cure for
I think I love you
Isn't that what life is made of?
Though it worries me to say
I've never felt this way

Believe me
You really don't have to worry
I only want to make you happy
And if you say,
hey, go away, I will
But I think better still
I ought to stay around and love you
Do you think I have a case?
Let me ask you to your face:
Do you think you love me?
I think I love you!

-- "I Think I Love You", The Partridge Family

That pic of Frankie reading on the chair reminds me of the scene in World Wide Wabbit when Frankie was pretending to be reading on her bed and said "Hey, Mr.H!" and then winked at Mac and Bloo. I love that scene and the whole episode. Great stuff, guys and lovely poem, Partymember.

You're right about what the ident is about. When it goes down the 'pipe', it's actually going through the speaker that Mr Herriman talks to, until it arrives at Frankie.

Its all good, baby. I do write some poetry, but its a bit too mature for this site(dark and sorrowful and such), that's a good song. Look it up, one of those peppy mid-sixties pop songs.

I found it to be very cool, and I'd love to see a full-size screenshot of Frankie in that bumper(If Cass doesn't mind).

I think that can be arranged:



Enjoy.

Thanks once again. She looks REALLY cute in that bumper short.

[Medikor]

Yeah, she has a nice smile.

[Cassini90125]

That she does; can't see enough of that wonderful smile, here or on the show. I think she looks a little younger in the bumper cap than in other pics of her, but maybe that's just me.

More stuff to come, but you already knew that. In the meantime, anyone have a favorite "Frankie moment" from the show? I've got a lot, but if I had to pick one, it would be from "Setting A President". Specifically, I'm thinking of her moment of triumph, when the votes were counted and she won the election by a landslide. My reaction wasn't any different than that day in 2002 when the Patriots scored that last-second field goal to win the Super Bowl; I jumped out of my chair, arms held high, and hollered "YES!!!" Why wouldn't I? For me, it was proof that all the hard work she does around the house doesn't go unnoticed, proof that the IF's do know that she really cares about them all, and this was their way of saying, "We trust you, and we thank you". The fact that she later gave the job back to Mr. Herriman doesn't diminish all that in my eyes in any way. After all, she gave it back to him as an act of compassion; the lower pay was just an excuse to do so. I think that says a lot about her.
