Famous Scene From Poltergeist and Grice's New Eyeglasses

My glasses finally arrived. I practically snatched the box from the FedEx guy, and tore it open. I've been waiting weeks.

I rushed (hobbled quickly, it's all relative) to the bathroom and threw them on the old mug and looked in the mirror.

This famous scene from "Poltergeist" aptly depicts my reaction. (Warning, it's a bit "graphic.")

I guess I'll have to get used to them.

(Fun fact about the movie: Steven Spielberg's own hands are peeling off Marty's face.)

Even I was disturbed by this.

The movie clip did not disturb me. Horror movies did not scare me even when I was a kid. I would try to suppress the thought pattern but I always ended up thinking, but that is makeup!

We should switch to contacts. The April Revolution 2006 gave me glasses. Looks like movies gave you yours.

Glasses -----> Contacts -----> Lasic (sp?)
