Re:
Naw, Annicita. I gave up a long time ago. I stayed hidden for as long as I could, but meal times and bathroom breaks became increasingly difficult to ignore . . .

Re:
Good question, Utah, although the discrepancy might be that it said 40+, and not 70+. I'm only 53, and whether I'm having sex with anybody or not, I don't consider myself to be an "old fart!" At least, not yet . . .

Well, in a way, yes, Kabu, but in another way, an undefeated champion! I guess that's why they invented solitaire . . .

Re: good ones, JimmyA...
I think I understand, pricklypear. But remember: it was musical chair, not musical chairs! If you can't beat yourself, you won't stand a chance against any opponent . . .

Re:
I think most people would, FSI, whether it was on draft, or came in bottles! Not very good advertising for that restaurant, I'm afraid . . .

Re:
Thanks, C C T. I really wasn't expecting such analyzations! But, to be fair, some of these are probably open to discussion and interpretation. Yeah, raising the age of boyfriend or girlfriend-calling to 80 may jump-start the libido of those in their 70's, but that would stand to be seen! And I don't think the people of Pompeii were expecting Vesuvius to do what it did to them, let alone facing the prospect of having their heads explode on a daily basis! And finally, the weaker birds don't play Hide & Seek or Musical Chairs! Whew! Class dismissed . . .

Re: Jimmy
I certainly hope not, Naut! I think the main difference would be "control." If an exploding head was like a sneeze or a cough, that's one thing! But no one that I know of actually enjoys sneezing or coughing. But blowing yourself up? I think that can actually be considered either a sport or a leisure activity in the Middle East now . . .

Re:
Perhaps, lustor, the brandy might work as some sort of "deflector," keeping your head intact! That may be the secret antidote! Amazing! Call the Nobel people . . .

But what if they are not having sex with them, can they be boyfriend and girlfriend, or just a couple of old farts?

Well Jimmy as always I have to search out when this is posted, but I think I should remark on a couple of things I think you should raise the age of having it off with a boy or girl to 80. if only to stir the libido of those in their 70s. Further more it has been ascertained that many who died in Pompeii suffered such a terrific heat that their brains exploded and shattered the skull. Further more an interesting little tidbit a Nestle-cock was a small weakling in a family a mother's pet or the weakest bird in the nest. Good entry this week.

LOL, good ones again! As to #1, well, pretty well anywhere in the Middle East they're coming close! There's a good chance that walking in the street you might stumble over an arm or a leg, and sitting in a restaurant you might suddenly find a body part dropping into your soup...
