I think I remember something similar, at a water park in Texas.
I was probably the only 29 year old wearing a Speedo, so I was pleased when my stares, at the hairless boys pushing my inner tube along, got shy smiles in return.
I remember a gay dad who was looking over applicants to be short-term nanny for his toddler. He was concentrating on the young men who were good-looking.
I must disagree on several points:
--The form is not so complex. Many people fill it out to get aid every year. (I did it myself multiple times.)
--This financial aid form considers a child independent of their parents support only after age 26. (A real bummer for someone who works hard on her/his own!)
But all this is fake water under the bridge now, isnt' it?
"Chickening out at the last minute" comes to mind. So does "being a coward about facing up to being a jerk." I had a couple of them do that.
And I was sensitive enough I was disappointed a little more than just losing out on the "transaction." I hope I'm not anymore.
I am going to go stark raving crazy until we know who this is.
(And if it's that loony Bryan Hawn, I'm going to go stark raving crazy when I know who it is! )
