Memes and Quizzes | No Comments » Saturday Slant Week 17: I Don’t Like To Talk About…
This Slant can be glibly answered with a trite response about a phobia or dislike (e.g. “I don’t like to talk about spiders or politics”), but I entreat you to search your soul. Tell your readers about one topic that makes you uncomfortable to discuss—and why it makes you uncomfortable. Open your ID and tell a fear or pain; open your heart and trust your readers.
If, in blogging your Slant, there isn’t a lump in your throat the whole time, you aren’t being honest enough with yourself.

SOMETHING FOR SATURDAY: Alcohol
1. When did you first start to taste alcohol, as a child? teenager? etc…
As a child, actually. I was passed-out drunk at five years-old. It was my mother’s wedding to my step-father. I was blitzed on wine my aunts and uncles kept feeding me.
That amusing story being said, alcohol was never a taboo in my house. Wine we drank often with dinner; my mother let me taste her mixed drinks (usually once per new type of drink). Consequently, I never had a strong desire to drink as a teenager or young adult.
…
I saw a shooting star tonight. It was bright, sharp, and flew diagnolly from N by NW to S by SE. I made a wish.
A moment later I watched the International Space Station skitter across the inky velvet blanket of the sky like a tiny spider.
Strawberry Blonde has expressed a curiosity, and is asking:
Ladies, when you go in for your annual exam, removing all your clothes and donning a gown, do you leave your socks on or off?

· how much do you enjoy movies?
Quite a lot. Only during certain times of the year do I really have the time to read, so I rely on movies to entertain and (whenever possible) enrich me.
· what’re your top 3 favorites?
Oh… Tough one. In no particular order (and subject to change at any moment): “Steele Magnolias,” “Still Breathing,” and “Armageddon.”
· are there any movies that you think are a complete waste of film?
Anything from Marvel Comics prior to 1999. Any so-called nostalgia fi…

TRIGGER 2::: The sound of…
The sound of her breathing, gentle as a pussy willow brushed across a child’s cheek, fills my senses. Rising and falling, her chest tugs at my arms like a spring breeze, barely perceptible, yet my entire world all the same. What she dreams I cannot guess, though I will with all my might that it is naught but the safest, most pleasant fantasy of childhood innocence. With sharp regret I lift my hand from where it has lain warmly, naturally upon her breast and gingerly brush a stray lock of spun sunlight from her brow. Beneath her pale lids my lo…

List the most unconventional ways in which someone has tried to pick you up (or that you’ve used).
Like afterdinnerman, my voice nearly had me picked up.
Many years ago I worked for 411 Directory Assistance in the Tampa, Florida area. I was a supervisor, but I did time on the phones like everyone else. I was the only man amongst 46 women.
Frequently I would get proposals from callers who thought I had a “sexy” or “gentle” voice. Some asked me out for that night; some tried to ascertain which of our five offices I was in and what time I got off work.

Gunter said that he was going down, but Marnie didn’t like that, so he yanked the spicket to stop this. In defiance, Fuller sang “Feelings” while dancing like a schizaphrenic clown on mescaline. It tweaked his hat and yet Gunter went down and jammed with the deformed mushroom people. “Crazy, daddy-o,” this they said and together they made a fuzzy navel with a jackrabbit and a mango.
Sexy Saturday: Week 32
Is sex better in a relationship? Is it better when you’re in love?
Oh, yes. Outside of a relationship it can be a lot of fun and be very good, but only through sharing an emotional bond and coming to know oneanother’s likes, dislikes, and erogenous zones can the sex grow to be truly mind-blowing. If one or both partners happen to be empathic or telepathic, making love can be something genuinely phenominal.

01. Can you take apart a motor, put it back together, and have no extra parts?
Nope. Uh-uh. No way, José. I’m not adept at auto mechanics, though I did provide the muscle to help a friend replace a Monte Carlo’s transmission many years ago. I hefted it into place and leveraged it when it wouldn’t fit while he tried to attach it. In the end it didn’t work. My friend got so pissed he lifted the transmission Hulk-like over his head and flung it fifteen feet, breaking a chunk of asphalt from the street.
02. Are you for or against the death pen…
Holy cow! I’ve had to remove 21 memes from the Memes List today.
Prompted by an e-mail from Tiffany, I have just manually verified each and every single meme on the list. It has taken me hours. Each of the inactive, 404, and outdated memes I found required follow up work. Because I really hate to see memes go down, and because, as the creator and maintainer of the Memes List, I feel a responsibility to the sites I’ve listed, I didn’t just see that the meme was gone or outdated and dump them from the database. I hunted down an e-mail address for nearly all of them, which often entailed r…

NON-FICTION: Topic: This morning as I woke up I thought…
This morning as I woke up I thought: “I’m the luckiest man in the world.”
I did. I am. Of course, had I attempted to verbalize that phrase, it would have spilled from my sleep-weighted lips more along the lines of: “Uhm luhgizt man inna wult.”
There was a perfectly mixed cup of steaming coffee waiting for me, laid upon my nightstand by the pale, slender fingers of the love of my life. Kneeling beside the bed she brushed a wayward lock of hair from my face, her smile filling the room and m…
The Memes List
I’ve made some updates to The Memes List, including restoring the contact info at the bottom and adding a new daily count. Did you know that Monday and Everday are tied for the most memes on a given day with thirteen? Friday, with seven, is the least popular day for memes. Monthly memes are growing with eight.
