Anyone know The Brick Joke?

I was talking to a friend a few months ago: "I had a bad dream," I said, "I was dreaming that I woke up and realized I was in a coma."

Although it has to be experienced to understand it, Mike Gaite's ad on Rentmen is the most singularly accurate description I've ever seen. [i think I may have been part of his self-description text]. He is exactly as he describes himself ... well, at least with me he is. Thank goodness we live a far way apart, or he could become a very expensive habit.

Three days a week. Thirty reps each day. Two years.

When I started working out, about 2 1/2 years ago, my trainer told me I was going to have "football glutes" Well, it took two years, but I've got them. And they're fun to touch. My estimate is that I've done over 4,000 glute bridges in that time. And i'm 65 now!

Well, it WAS Carnegie Hall. One must respect the old dame's conservatism.

I knew a cardiologist whose weight was over 350 ... he dropped down to 180, I think on the Atkins diet ... and put it all back, with more. Ok, I know white bread isn't the healthiest thing, but the white bread (the loaf, not the other one) in that photo does look de-lish.

@Blade9 How was Alec Powers? Now THAT's a fantasy man.

How was Charley's Aunt? I remember learning The New Ashmolean Marching Society and Student's Conservatory Band and Once in Love with Amy in seventh grade from the musical adaptation of Charley's aunt, called Where's Charley? I want to re-enter the theatre. My first role would be that of Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Earnest, which I could do with the proper voice AND the proper bosom.

I had a friend who was so dumb ("How dumb was he?") that he thought Moby Dick was a venereal disease.

My friend the Abbot says he just goes in the stall. It makes life much easier.

I only leased mine. My Saab 9000 had no a/c, no rear defrost, bald tires, and wouldn't pass inspection. I was paying off a 1991 Special Edition British Racing Green Miata (which I still have, including the hardtop). I needed a vehicle. I was 3,000 miles under the lease milage, and I was buying a 1996 4Runner from the dealer. He gave me $3000 towards the 4Runner.

No, thanks, I'll just be the wallflower with the camera.

Who's got the GO PRO camera?

There is an excellent, and hideously expensive drug called ondansetron or Zofran for its brand name. It is the first of a series of drugs: Ondashertron Ondancertron [the prodrug] Onprancetron Onvixetron Oncometron Oncupidtron Ondonnertron and, my personal favourite: Onblitzetron. Equally unlikely, it is named after the muskrat, Ondatra zibethicus, which is unable to vomit. Believe what you will, I'm not making this stuff up.

I know there have to be SOME Electrical Engineering nerds out there: http://imgs.xkcd.com/comics/circuit_diagram.png

It's kind of like Costco or Sam's Club:

It's fun watching the variety of ages in the locker room at the gym. It seems the most self-conscious are the mid-to-late-teens who aren't as buff as their buds [still, nothing to cry over!]. Fortunately, I have sensed few assholes. Maybe because it's a relatively upscale gym in an upper class town. The older fellows don't seem particularly embarrassed either. My trainer told me, "Don't be surprised the first time you see someone put his leg on the [hair dryer] bench, and dry his perineum off." It was a bit odd. Now that I think of it, there are two changing areas. The Young Bucks tend towards one, and the Old Dudes towards the other. I use the Old Dude one if I'm swimming, because it's a shorter walk to the pool, but if I'm just leaving my jacket, I'll do it in the front one. SO maybe body shaming isn't so prevalent as we think. It does seems to be a local, societal norm.

"Seventeen? Didn't you mean sixteen?" asked Tom, unaccountably.

I thought it was George Carlin I thought it was shit, fuck, piss, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, tits. "Even in a Disney movie you could say, 'Let's snatch that pussy and put it in a box.'"

I never heard of this album by Firsesign Theatre. Fascinating, captain!

Please post a review.

Firm your dates up as well you can. I suggest a couple of sequential overnights. MikeGAite does not come cheap, but he is worth everypenny, and then more. His schedule is frequently not written in stone, and depending on circumstances, can become quite flexible. From your self-description, I think you and he would make a good pairing.

Just for the record: Johnny Castle has been around for a VERY long time, and I've never seen anything beyond solo videos of him. so methinks male-male interraction is off the charts. He's done multiple straight videos [or at least 1 that I cn think of off the top of my head].
