Why is it that the Crum family is so awesome? This has been the subject of much debate, many university classes, and a hit sitcom in the late 80's. What is it about the Crum family that makes us so proud and makes everyone else envious? I know that this has been the main theme in Edwardo's posts, but I would like to take a more in-depth look at this topic without referencing MacGyver (and without scary pictures of Pete).
As we look at the trends of awesomeness over the past few decades we see many trends, fashions, slang-words, and popular breakfast cereal ads have been directly influenced by the family Crum. However, the Crum family has not always had as huge an influence on the general public as it does today. In the late 60's the Crums were actually suffering from, what some experts refered to as, "a complete lack of coolness" and what others called "nerd like qualities." Even with the birth of the first four sons (Edwardo, Peter, Matthew, and Bob-kin) the family lacked the pizzazz it needed to function as the worlds top trend setting powerhouse.
"I remember those days" recalls Robert Moir, father of Jill Crum, "the whole family just seemed to be, well, weird. Let's just say they all wore matching knit sweaters, 'know what I mean? There was just something missing." It was a peaceful, quite time in the Crum home, but that would all soon change...
Stay tuned for part two of The Crum Family: Behind the Legend
