I can't remember who it was playing him, but he kept jerking his head and yelling "Soul Patrol!" Then he was talking about his grey hair and said something about the carpet matching the curtains - first time I had ever heard that one! :-o E, it was hi-freakin-larious!

I guess we will find out tomorrow when all is revealed...maybe we'll even find out if the carpet matches the curtains (that last bit is courtesy of Robert). [involuntary shudder] Too much testosterone today!!

Frankly, I'm going to have to reconsider how much I really respect you. And I can't place your second reference. But for some reason, perhaps also given the time of day and that it's Monday, I'm made to think of inappropriately groomed pubic hair. Which may well be an inappropriate comment, but you did use the word 'slut' in your post, so I don't feel so bad.

I bet this ends with you experiencing your first "smoker kiss," only to cause you to vow that you'll never do that again. :-) Or...maybe it gets a lot more interesting, and requires your wife's approval to post.

Just needed a description that contrasted well with the word "life." I should have told her, "You don't want carpet, you want an area rug." Now, I dare someone to get that reference.
