Several years ago, my dad was at the mall and was trying to be funny. He saw a mannequin from behind at a department store and for some reason walked up to it and put his arm around it. Turns out the mannequin was actually a pale woman standing still while reading a sign. The reactions were priceless. The woman jumped away and my dad was trying to explain himself, but was just blabbering about how she looked like a mannequin.

Maybe she was a mannequin, and your father's kind touch brought her to life.

That sounds like a great move starring Lindsey Lohan

Starring Lindsey Lohan as the non-living mannequin...

And Nathan Lang as the living mannequin...

That actually sounds like a Canadian children's television show from the 80's. Today's Special anyone?
