Big Orange: oh, and old tech is still good tech.
Big Orange: that is, an old fashioned ice bag is a wonderful thang.
Big Orange: and a helluva lot cheaper than those chemical ice packs.
Big Orange: hehehehe///
Flannery: true
Big Orange: I woke up with a half poem in my head.
Big Orange: I'm trying to see if I can write it.... wanna see what I have so far?
Flannery: sure
Big Orange: Come gather ‘round, pull up a chair, and listen my friends
To a tale about my most recent event
a happening that made my heart most content,
the cutting of my vas deferens.
Flannery: oh, jesus
Big Orange: I thought I'd try covering ALL the blogs...
Big Orange: so you like it so far??
Big Orange: I'll work on it.
Big Orange: can I send it to you for editing??
Flannery: I feel like I've been listening to a reality show about your vasectomy!!!
Big Orange: yup!
Big Orange: you get the play-by-play AND the colour commentary!
Big Orange: hehehehehehe!!
Big Orange: I told Doc a lil' bit about it and he thinks there is much material to be mined therewithin.
Flannery: I think I could do my phd on the subject; my knowledge is so intimate
Big Orange: ESPEICIALLY when I told him that the MD's office was an old HOUSE
Big Orange: AND that four old, old guys were milling around the porch and coming outside, all walkin' reaaal funny and bent over.
Flannery: I'm done picturing your balls and the workings therein
Big Orange: one old motherfucker could barely walk-- like he'd been repeatedly KICKED in the balls-- and was wearing an eyepatch!
Flannery: well, you are in the south
Big Orange: I seriously thought about chickening out for a moment there.
Big Orange: well, yeah....
Flannery: well, you are a big chicken
Big Orange: that's troo...
Big Orange: remember the surgery in "Batman" where the Joker got patched up??
Flannery: not really
Big Orange: well, there we go.
Flannery: why don't you ask Doc to edit your poem?
Big Orange: hehehehe.
Big Orange: OK.
Flannery: let me know when you are moved to write about flowers...or ovaries
Big Orange: anyway, valium is wonderful.
Flannery: word
Big Orange: I could write about ovaries.
Big Orange: there's a new sterilzation process for wimmin-folken that doens't involve surgery.
Big Orange: is that interesting to you?
Flannery: nope
Big Orange: no... falopian tube implants
Big Orange: you wanted to know when I was moved to write about ovaries, but when I ask if you're interested, you say nope.
