pouting I wanted to be the homewrecking hussy, dammit.
Gimme the heels, I’m ready to take you on, Miss Flora.
Atrael,
Rule #1. Figure out what I mean, not what I say.

Corsets…check…two pair five-inch heels…check…12 x 12 foot vat of fresh whipped cream…check…chilled beer and freshly popped popcorn for all the guests…
If a thread’s named after you, I wonder if you can charge admission…
Let me know how much Ike…I’d be happy to support your entertainment endevors.
Jazz–
(slapping forhead)…That’s were I keep making my mistakes.
But in all fairness to me (grin), when I first saw this thread, I thought it was private between you and Ike…didn’t want to intrude on an personal moment…Least that’s what I’m claiming…
I haven’t lost my mind, I have a tape backup around somewhere.
Uke, just take all expenses out of my inheritance; might as well get the binge started early.

The Circus of Dr. Lao ref. Charles Finney, don’t chew know. Read it yet? Everyone should read it.
{Phew! Thank god I caught that!}
Yep, I’ve read it. Still have it, in fact. The movie had a little more resolution than the book, though, which sorta just ended. Like “Show’s over. Bye.”
good lord. I got email notification this morning that people had replied to my thread and I came in to let the mods know that the board screwed up again. I haven’t started a thread in forever. Now I see.
What in the world do you newbies search on to find these old threads?
Not that Mr. Ike isn’t worth bringing this to the top or anything

Who cares if he’s married and has kids! He’s still exciting to fantasize about! <—Too lazy to correct my own grammar today.
Love ya Uke!
Yike! I didn’t mean YOU, Mjollnir. (Anyone who could so casually toss off a reference to the benighted town of Abalone, Arizona, is obviously one of the Elect.) That was directed at those of us who frequent this forum and have never heard of C. Finney’s brilliant 1934 novel The Circus of Dr. Lao. Or the 1964 Tony Randall movie, The Seven Faces of Dr. Lao.
You’re right, the book’s better, as is so often the case. But they couldn’t have filmed that conclusion!
So. Was it a bear, or a Russian?
