SuperGirl to the rescue on Christmas



Above is a video made of old Christmas photos of Natalie and her sister Annette. One picture I didn't put in the video is the one to the right of Natalie opening up a set of SuperGirl Underoos. That's because Underoos always bring back painful memories for me. Memories of me dancing around the living room with my then girlfriend. But things are all better now. I'm over the pain of the breakup, the tabloid headlines -- Superman? More Like Just Average Man and Aquaman All Washed Up. Like I said, things are better now and I'm over it ..... Here's a vintage Underoos ad:



Fruit of the Loom is still making Underoos, but the vintage ones -- for girls and for boys -- are way cooler.

NOTE: Don't forget to send an old photo of you or one of yours opening up or playing with a gift on Christmas. Send it to brothersgentry@yahoo.com and I'll have a post on Christmas morning with a gallery of the old photos. It will be sort of a surprise gift for everyone to see. Even if I have no clue who you are. Send one and I'll post it. Thanks.

Boy that brought back some memories! I had Wonder Woman under-roos and my sister Kate had Super Girl!

I had Wonder Woman too. The polyester gave me a butt rash so I had to wear cotton underwear underneath my underoos...which led to my confusion about how to wear the underoos. I used them as outeroos, with roller skates and yellow wristbands (the spin was more coonvinceing on roller skates).

Yes, in the form of a jump rope.
