HI ALL
I thought I would share with all of you a funny story & personal experience of mine.. A few years ago when I lived in WI a really good friend of mine Lisa & I would hang out all the time, usually on fri & sat nights we would get together and head to the bar(s) Now Lisa is one of the few people who has never treated me different because Im disabled & the ONLY person who has gotten me to get out on the dance floor with her more than a few times (of course I had to have a few drinks 1st lol) which I will admit was a sight to see Me dancing haha & with my cane no less now that's funny we always had a great time no matter what bar we went to which was normally 1 of 2 places so we knew a lot of the people which ever bar we ended up going to. Now as you can imagine on a fri or sat night the bar was packed so getting thru the crowd could sometimes be challenging but since we knew a lot of people we usually didn't have a prob getting a table or a seat @ the bar but it never failed every single time we went to the bar weather we were sitting down having drinks or making our way thru the crowd someone would always stop me and say "Hey whats up w/the cane why do you walk w/a cane whats wrong with you?? Really whats wrong w/me??
So after this happening MANY TIMES & me getting really frustrated Lisa & I decided NO MORE that's it no longer is there a cane So this is what we started doing
Since it never failed & we knew it wouldn't stop from that point on everytime someone asked THE QUESTION whats with the cane, why do you walk w/a cane what's wrong w/u this is the answer that's given
WHAT CANE? WHAT ARE U TALKING ABOUT??? Never fails they ALWAYS point to my cane & say that cane & look at me confused I reply with a straight face O THAT ITS NOT A CANE ITS MY PERSONAL STRIPPER POLE The look on their faces are priceless everytime let me say & funny as hell LOL
So I thought I'd share w/all of you & hey if u want to use my line feel free you will enjoy the priceless looks of shock & get a good laugh so just be ready. Hope you all are having a wonderful night [/SIZE]
