Fractured fairy tales from a 50-something
The Lotus Position
1 Mar 2008 Author: bobwayne In: Sexy rides, Youth impaired, humor, middle-aged chronicles, sports carsA few years back, I thought I was going to come into a great deal of money (I didn’t). Well, as any sensible middle-aged guy would do, I went out looking at sports cars. The Diva and I went straight to the Lotus/Jaguar dealership.

29 Feb 2008 Author: bobwayne In: Mexican American Relations, Piggy, humor, politicsLast night, the Diva Drew and I met Dr. Brenda Kayzar of the University of Minnesota at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis to hear Teddy Cruz speak.

Claustrophobic feet are caused by Fuzzy Slipper Syndrome, a typically Minnesotan disease caused by “freeze-your-ass-off” temperatures. The tendency here is to spend the entire winter with your feet encased in fuzzy slippers to ward off the arctic blasts that shred their way across Canada and crash into Minnesota after warming up to a balmy 30-below zero.

I just saw a piece on the news about The Naked Cowboy. He’s the guy who stands around in New York’s Times Square in his tighty-whities, cowboy boots and cowboy hat playing guitar and singing. That’s not news. I’m sure we’ve all seen him on TV at one time or another or at least heard of him.
