I'm not getting much in the way of, ah,
support here (kdf's offer notwithstanding).

Careful ASK, with the - ummm - situation as it stands (ahem), they may mistake your Hawaian Shirt for a Polypenesian Shirt.

If the situation had been standing, I would have expected this.

OK, ASK. I was once on a city bus ride going home from high school. It was standing room only when I got on, and I ended up stationed in front of two teenage girls sitting next to each other, who were maybe a year or two younger than I. I wasn't paying too close attention, but it did eventually catch my eye that they were communicating with each other without speaking. Still not thinking too much of it, I didn't notice at first that their eye gestures, subtle nods, and increasingly less (oxymoron alert!) suppressed smirks were punctuated with looks straight ahead, i.e., just below my belt. I did after awhile, though, but, not wanting to be caught looking directly at them, I averted my glances. Shortly before my stop, I pressed the stop signal and prepared to move toward the exit. That's when one of them quickly put a hand on my rear end and zipped up my fly.

"one of them quickly put a hand on my rear end and zipped up my fly."
Blue - I'd be embarrassed too if I had my pants on backwards!
Just sayin.
;-)
Posted by: CoastRaven | April 28, 2006 at 11:48 AM
We're all speechless with jealousy, Blue.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 28, 2006 at 11:48 AM
One hand to hold me from leaving, the other to zip.
Do I need to give lessons to you guys?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | April 28, 2006 at 11:50 AM
I do remember claiming that I always have to be the center of attention.
Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 11:50 AM
Blue, damn, you didn't know that was me?
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 11:51 AM
Apparently yes Blue. With demonstrations please.

He said "zipped up," kdf.

I wasn't Blue then, I was Red as all hell.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | April 28, 2006 at 11:55 AM
How did that get back in there?
Posted by: The "all the way to this end of the spectrum" ASK | April 28, 2006 at 11:55 AM
And as you can tell by my double posting, I'm seriously eager for that demo.
Posted by: wolfie | April 28, 2006 at 11:55 AM
Duh, ASK, I was done. :)
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 11:55 AM
And KDF completes her slide down the slippery slope.

pssst, ASK, nope, we haven't gotten anywhere close to the 4th circle yet
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 11:58 AM
KDF is one step ahead of me all morning. Sheesh.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | April 28, 2006 at 11:58 AM
Nope - no lessons for this moron.
(lessons - moron - HAR)
sorry bout that.

Oh, Blue, come on. You know y'all love the view. ;)

Scary, isn't it?
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 12:06 PM
I think I'll go back here for a while and pretend none of this since then has happened.

What oo ou ant ee oo oo ish zish, ASHK?
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 12:15 PM
Are we all assuming BtM checked to be sure it was undone again?

Did ya'll see that? Without bending her knees even.

Hey whatever works ASK - it's one of those things that is worthwhile to get slapped (or arrested) for 10 times if it works once.

ASHK, you hazhn't anshwered ee et.

Wolfie, I think we scared ASK away.
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 12:40 PM
Sorry - was watching the muppets.
Well , it all seems to have still happened.
Let's see, kdf. Can you put it in my left pocket?

Left pocket's full, babe.

No, ASK. Here we're watching The Muppets. And doing some other stuff too, I forget.

Re: Bloglit meetings:
There will be an ad hoc meeting (whatever *that* means) in Memphis May 5, 6 and 7 for the May in Memphis musical festival thing.
I'm going; so is Lab and his wife; and our favorite waterfowl may be able to go as well.
Anyone else????
Re Karaoke (sp?) I was with some friends one night at a local jazz club. The singer was a friend of one of our friends. We closed up the place, and then went down on the Landing to a Karoake bar. Nearly everyone singing was pretty bad. Then the jazz singer got up to sing. Jaws were dropping all over the place.
I can't sing. Picture Cameron Diaz in My Best Friend's Wedding and that's how I sound (not look) Anyway, that night, I sang Love Potion #9 with a friend of mine who is an opera singer. *That* was different! I just basically did some lip syncing.
Posted by: slyeyes | April 28, 2006 at 01:24 PM
I'm afraid to admit it in this crowd, but I have never done karaoke.

Can someone add that to "bad" for me?

bein next to wolfie makes me a bit warm.
Posted by: CoastRaven | April 28, 2006 at 01:39 PM
Well, if you're too warm, you can always take off some clothes. I mean it is pantsfree friday you know.
Posted by: wolfie | April 28, 2006 at 01:43 PM
pssst, Wolfie, that's his leghair
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 01:45 PM
nope - wont add the ly slyeyes -
"everyone singing was pretty bad" - everyone was bad -
seems right enough for me
"everyone was singing pretty bad" would need an "ly"
they were singing badly (poorly) -
OK... my brain hurts and I am not even positive I am correct.
Posted by: CoastRaven | April 28, 2006 at 01:50 PM
Really?
*looks closer*
Sweet! Traction when things get slippery n slidey.

This class went much better. They didn't pay any attention to the lecture at all.
Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 01:56 PM
not too tight wolfie - I dont want it to get all kinky... the hair I mean, YOu can get as kinky as ya want.
Posted by: CoastRaven | April 28, 2006 at 01:59 PM
They were probably too busy pressing refresh.
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 02:02 PM
the important question is have you ever done a karaoke host?
Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 02:02 PM

No ASK. You are my first.

Another theory blown.

Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 02:17 PM
Coast, if she starts braiding your leg hair, you'll be happy she stumbled.
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 02:19 PM
Whoa!
*sits down to eat some popcorn and watch the leg-hair-braiding*
This is way better than staying pissed off at Giant Frog.
Posted by: Marie in Kourou | April 28, 2006 at 02:31 PM
I can't braid anything right now. I'm unconscious. Knocked out cold by a carelessly thrown popcorn bucket. It might have in fact, killed me. But nobodies thought to check just yet. I mean really. I realize *peeks thru closed eyes* that CR has 'other' things on his mind, but nobody has shown the slightest concern. I could be permanentely concussed you know.
Posted by: wolfie | April 28, 2006 at 02:45 PM
If yer head warn't movin' so much, we mighta checked.
I have no idea when I became such a hick.

I have a headache. This is not good, as I have Russian class in an hour. Gahhhhhhh!

When you found out I have a 'thing' for accents?
And that isn't my head, it's CRs.
Posted by: wolfie | April 28, 2006 at 02:53 PM
It's this place, ASK. I have learned so much about myself in recent days.
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 02:54 PM
is there anything you don't have a thing for?
Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 02:57 PM
Aw, Marie! Bucket o' corn got you too?

I'd answer that TheAsk, but I'm currently still unconscious until the I.V. kicks in.

Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 03:34 PM
We scared them all away, ASK. And, excellent recovery.
Posted by: KDF | April 28, 2006 at 03:37 PM
Not scared away - just had some work get in the way.
Posted by: CoastRaven | April 28, 2006 at 03:44 PM
Hey, I didn't get where I am today by being stupid.
I got here by being lazy and unmotivated.
Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 03:48 PM
I wasn't scared either. I was so impressed by KDF's moxie that I swooned just a bit.
Posted by: sharon share-alike | April 28, 2006 at 03:49 PM
I was facing the wrong way when she picked up the quarter, so I didn't see her moxie. Impressive, huh?
Posted by: The ASK | April 28, 2006 at 03:53 PM
didnt see her floxie, moxie OR her cottontail huh?
Posted by: CoastRaven | April 28, 2006 at 03:55 PM
Don't you just love the internet?

cotton tail?
Slight warning on that for work.
Posted by: wolfie | April 28, 2006 at 04:14 PM
That looks more like moxie to me.
