I could give you a thousand reasons why. I was impressed by how well it was made and how good the acting was for a TV special (I don't watch TV specials,...
Use a Sharpie.
It sits on my shelf. High out of the reach of tiny hands and excessive preschool creativity. A tin can that was probably once full of chili beans, but now houses a rainbow of...
