Actually, studies have shown that belly busting laughter is good for you!

Hey, it was a good story! I'd have loved to have been a fly on *that* wall. Though I think I might have ended it differently, such as, all of sudden getting a shocked look on your face, stop dancing right in the middle of the floor and asking him as loudly as you can if his wife knows he has all those girlfriends!

Sometimes we all need a good laugh, a good story to distract us and yes, sometimes the bad guys get what they have coming to them.

I so wish I could take everyone's pain and just toss it in the ocean. This kind of pain can be as intractable as cancer pain I believe.

*snerk* LMAO!

So I thought you were commenting on me being 6ft 7 inches tall when you said get that garb on and get a picture taken, etc. etc.

Boy, my brain is not working.

BUT , IF I WERE 6 FT 7 INCHES TALL, I'd look like Anna Nichole Smith and boy would that be something.

And that story actually happened.
I will never forget his face as he was holding my the drinks and he actually thought he would "score". I never went back to that place after that.

Never trusted all those guys lined up against the wall that would eye the girls as they came in and pounced on them.

Back in the 70's, it was a meat market. Don't know if things have changed.

I wouldn't want to be 22 in this age.

Having kids in the 'dating game' it is still brutal....although I think it is less acceptable to puke in the city garbage cans than back in the '70s!

Now the kids have to worry about drugs being slipped in their drinks.

I am fortunate that my kids are not in bars much and meet people in other places....I don't miss the disco ball.

oh cyclops..you know you do...

It seems things were so much more quaint if that is the word back then. I'm young and not into bars but there is so much to worry about and dating and people in general. I love hearing stories from the earlier days. All of you guys are so awesome and though in pain have such spunk!

Daniella:
I was born in 1947. Believe me, you don't get to be the ripe old age of 59 without having SOME LIFE EXPERIENCES. We make choices, and we learn from those choices.

If I could go back in time, I would have not dated the guys I dated, I would have not had that 3rd slice of pizza, those twinkies and those ring dings. I would have never let myself get diabetes. I would have followed the lead of the great Jack LaLanne and gone to the gym every single day and fed my body THE RIGHT FOOD instead of the garbage I put into it.

But ast almost 60, I have learned, I have moved forward, and I try to learn something new every day.

Now I have a friend who lives around the corner. She's 75 and she rarely leaves the house. She has found her "comfort zone". She's healthy as a horse, put she panics about everything. She owns a brand new dvd player. Does she use it??? Of course not. Her son who lives downstairs has to come up, put in the dvd and press play for her.

I was there the other night. I said "My dear, why can't you put in the dvd and just press play?? Her response. "why should I, that's what I have my son for?" I said "But what if he goes out and you want to watch a dvd?" She replied "Oh, that doesn't phase me, I'll just watch tv, until he comes home".

She then asked me "do you watch DVD's?" and I said "yes, I watch it on the dvd drive of my computer" She said "how do you do this?" and I said I use my mouse. DO I HAVE TO TELL YOU WHAT THE NEXT THING THAT CAME OUT OF HER MOUTH??????

What's a mouse????? lol

Now, an even funnier story is about my Aunt, who was 75 at the time, (living in Florida), well her son bought her a VCR. This was over 10 years ago. She was crazy about THE VIEW with Barbara Walters, only in Florida it went on at 3 a.m.

My Aunt Sallie, got up at 3 a.m. (that's right, in the middle of the night) and pressed the record button). I said "Sally, if you don't want to learn how to program it, just press the record button when you to bed and it will record all night. And when you get up, you can rewind it to the beginning and then fast foward it until you see the View.

Her response: "what do you mean, I can rewind it to the beginning and the fast forward it???? When I explained, she said "oh, really??? I can do that?? I then said "you know, why don't I just write down how you can program this and then you can program the VCR to go on at 3 a.m. and off at 4 pm.

Her response "I can do this????. I said "of couse, I'll write down all the steps and you can do this. So I wrote down all the steps, mailed it to her and when she got it, she followed step by step. And she programmed her first program Guess what she asked me the next day?

"Melody, how do I get to watch it, what do I have to do??" I said "put the tape in the vcr and rewind it to the beginning and press play"

It took me one hour to show her how to do this. ONE HOUR.

I hope if I ever get this way, someone shoot me in my noodle!!!

I give up.

lol
