My mom always argues
with me about this one,

00:00:04.180 --> 00:00:06.060 align:middle line:90%
but it is a true story.

00:00:06.060 --> 00:00:08.320 align:middle line:90%
[LAUGHTER]

00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:12.640 align:middle line:84%
It's called, "Pizza
with Light Bulb."

00:00:12.640 --> 00:00:17.160 align:middle line:84%
Mama always made the
best Arabic pizza:

00:00:17.160 --> 00:00:22.200 align:middle line:84%
soft, thick with olives,
mushrooms and cheese

00:00:22.200 --> 00:00:26.800 align:middle line:84%
and of course, ketchup
instead of pizza sauce.

00:00:26.800 --> 00:00:31.560 align:middle line:84%
But that night, there was
something different about it.

00:00:31.560 --> 00:00:36.720 align:middle line:84%
We knew one should never
complain about homemade food,

00:00:36.720 --> 00:00:41.600 align:middle line:84%
so we crunched and swallowed,
washed it down with Pepsi

00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:46.960 align:middle line:84%
until she heard the glass
shards under our teeth.

00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:52.720 align:middle line:84%
She opened the oven, found out
the light in there had burst.

00:00:52.720 --> 00:00:57.160 align:middle line:84%
The doctor on the phone said
the only side effect would be

00:00:57.160 --> 00:01:01.680 align:middle line:90%
our asses lighting up at night.

00:01:01.680 --> 00:01:04.440 align:middle line:84%
It was a practical
thing, after all,

00:01:04.440 --> 00:01:08.600 align:middle line:84%
to turn into lightning bugs
with the electricity gone from

00:01:08.600 --> 00:01:11.260 align:middle line:90%
midnight until 6:00 AM.

00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:14.840 align:middle line:90%


00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:19.500 align:middle line:90%
True story, we ate glass.

00:01:19.500 --> 00:01:20.000 align:middle line:90%
