I may get lunch.
Hold my seat - I'll be back.
Like the scene from Animal House, he just keeps asking for another. His bottom gets so red, but he likes it when I rub on the soothing ointment afterward.
"Hold my seat - I'll be back. "
May I volunteer?????? Boom boom boom boom
"I may get lunch.
Hold my seat - I'll be back. "
How can you think about food at a time like this!
Me too!!!

Oh, wait, JerseyRepublicanBikerChick does think about food during sex, I forgot.
Disco was 1975 (The Hustle) through the early 80s. I was there and remember it quite well! :-) The height was probably 77-79.
Oh, my, the Hustle! Disco balls, Farrah Faucet hair. Silver strapped heels.
There is something wrong there.
"I take it, thag, that you are a fan of The Far Side comics????"
Yes, indeed. No, Thag is NOT Gary Larson.....
has anyone mentioned Buck Rogers and the 20th century...yet another excuse for disco to foist itself onto the unsuspecting public.
"'Disco Balls'
There is something wrong there."
Now you know why Thag walks funny!
Disco Balls are better than Beer Nuts or Cotton Balls any day.
Earth Shoes! Wallabees! Dr. Scholl's sandals!
YA'LL STOP IT.
Peacebaby is blushing!
OMG, you read my mind. Those, along with "Undercover Angel" were all released the same summer ('77, I think) - the trifecta of awful teenybop songs.
You walk that way because they are fragile?
My daughter sells Earth Shoes, along with Burkenstocks.
