Sloan was HOT!
In the eyes of this once-young lion, she was certainly a beautiful creature, a sight to behold.

Mr. Rooney (played by Jeffrey Jones) is accused by Ferris Buehler's sister Jeannie (played by Jennifer Grey) of being a child molester.

Jeffrey Jones was actually arrested for solicitation of child pornography, to which charge he pleaded no contest and was sentenced to probation.

According to Wikipedia, he has been arrested more recently for failing to register as a sex offender.

There is no backseat in this Ferrari, so they are breaking laws and violating safety. Not to mention that the Carbon Footprint of this vehicle was atrocious.

1986.

2016.

Yes, some of the stuff we did as kids would land us in jail with a juvenile record these days. Having grown up in the eighties I can relate to this article. Fortunately my kids were active as I was.

My favorite line. And I still use especially because I’m a recovering aircraft engineer that still does consulting..

“Relax. I’m a professional.”

Do you remember the music video for the song “Our Lips are Sealed” by the Go-Go’s? It was partially shot on the streets in L.A. You could not do that now.

I’ve never watched the video. M TV was actually good at one time.

Thank Goodness it was a Kit Car and not a real Ferrari.

Same goes for the Ferrari Daytona on Miami Vice.

If they were real and went through what happened on screen, I would have been crying.

Ferris, Cameron and Sloan are skinny and surprisingly free of Millennial teen and early adult diseases like Diabetes and High Blood Pressure. Why? Because they went places and did things!

Is that what causes Diabetes in teens and early adults (which is typically Type 1)? Who knew?

But now younger people are also getting type 2 diabetes. Type 2 diabetes used to be called adult-onset diabetes. But now it is becoming more common in children and teens, due to more obesity. With Type 2 diabetes, the body does not make or use insulin well.

Children have a higher risk of type 2 diabetes if they are obese, have a family history of diabetes, or are not active, and do not eat well. To lower the risk of type 2 diabetes in children
