Word For The Day
The Verbivores | 10/07/02 | Mistress Bella and Miss Rika

Posted on 10/07/2002 6:43:48 AM PDT by Bella_Bru

In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....

It was funny, on friday, when i was still solo, my new best friend hockey dad was considerably less attentive with his wifey and 3 other kids there. But at the end of the game she introduced herself to me and we were chatting and getting along famously when he came out with his son from the locker room : ) It seems she is quite a pip herself, she plays on an adult hockey team, one of two women, the rest men!

oh and the best friend hockey dad's wife is the one that xshub referred to as looking like a floozy. as he put it, unbelievably bleached blonde hair and clothes that were several sizes too small. i have to say she is actually pretty darn hot for someone who has birthed 4 kids! she looks great.

An epiphenomenon of Arts & Letters Daily going out of business is that I'm going to throw a hissy fit.

Fat Man in the Bathtub
-- George

Spotcheck Billy got down on his hands and knees
He said "Hey momma, hey let me check your oil all right?"
She said "No, no honey, not tonight
Comeback Monday, comeback Tuesday, and then I might."
 
I said Juanita, my sweet Jaunita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
I said Jaunita, my sweet taquita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
 
Don't want nobody who won't die for dance
Don't want no speed cars 'cause I -- I might pass by
And throw me a line, throw me a dime
'Cause there's a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan -- moan
 
Billy he got so sad, dejected, put on his hat and start to run
Runnin' down the street yellin' at the top of his lungs (oh yeah)
All I want in this life and time is some good clean fun
All I want in this life and time is some hit and run
 
Said Juanita, my sweet Jaunita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
I said Jaunita, my sweet taquita, what are you up to?
My Juanita
 
Put my money in your meter baby so it won't run down
But you got me in a squeeze play on the cheesy side of town
Throw me a line, throw me a dime
'Cause there's a fat man in the bathtub with the blues
I hear you moan, I hear you moan, I hear you moan -- moan
 
 

Why don't you invite Roebucks? He and Spotcheck Billy go way back.

xshub would not approve of me looking to get lucky other than at home!

How could you marry such a spoilsport?

As my hero David Spade once said, "All women are two drinks away from a girl-girl encounter."

No, they can't .....

(Looks around innocently....)

(Remarks sideways to hobbes: "Heck, I'm still trying to figure out this here relationship she's talkin' about ... something about a best friend's father's husband's son's floozy hockey wife's girl friend comin' in the locker room with only 1 other woman on the team .....)

Sounds complicated, I tell ya.
