Are Men Necessary?
Posted by Johnny
Today I was having some trouble deciding what to write about. I could have written another drunk-a-log, or maybe a funny story that I had in the trenches of my memory; however, I was feeling a little humorless and tired. Thankfully my good pal Rita from Philly wrote in. Most of the regular readers will remember her from her lovely birthday greeting to me this year. Anyway she told me about how this year she was without a tree due to the refurbishing of her place. She sent along a photo of her tree from last year and asked if I could pick out her favorite present. I must say that was a first. Thanks for sharing Rita, you brightened my week! Enjoy 2007, my friend. And give a big “Hello” to Jim for me!
(Oh my goodness — in consideration of Ma Hazzard — where’s the censor’s black bar?)
Aside from Maureen Dowd’s wonderful book, (in which she makes very clear that men are indeed necessary, especially for the lifting of heavy boxes), I must make note of the Carrie Fisher audio book CD pictured in the foreground — “The Best Awful.” Jim and I played Carrie’s audio book during our drive to Boston in early July when we stayed in the South End where we happened upon meeting Mr. Hazzard!
**Best of the 2007 to all!**
I wish Santa got that for me this year… ah well… guess I’ll have to make due with that Eric Hanson dildo I bought a few weeks ago… sigh… I bet Eric doesn’t know tons of AbFab trivia… and thus his dildo just isn’t as sexy.
Carrie Fischer is fabulous. I’ll never forget her interview with Madonna in Rolling Stone circa 1991. As for the censorship, I realize this is a “family” site, but I feel the effect would have been lost.
Mrs. Rita, in some respects I would like to think men are necessary. However, your Christmas dildo might challenge the notion. By the way, was Mr. Hazzard’s anatomical likeness a gift from your husband?
Greetings LIT — The Johnny toy was indeed a gift from Mr. Jim, however, I had to place the online order as Hubby Dearest suffers a bit from the AADD and was afraid of getting lost for hours on the site.
Rita, your husband is an awesome guy! On another subject, a video of him “dildo shopping” for you would have been You Tube gold.
Robert, Robert, Robert… I think I love your dirty mind as much as I love Rita’s (and hubbie’s) sense of humor!
Rita, what’s AADD? I’m a foreigner and too tired to think properly tonight. TIA.
By the way, it’s 2007 already on this side of the pond. Bonne Année everyone!!!
Well Frog, my last round of feedback was actually “Oprah tame”. The darkest recesses of my dirty mind can even generate internalized fear at times.
By the way, AADD is shorthand for adult attention deficit disorder. Sufferers of this neurological condition have great difficulty maintaining focus. Fortunately, treatment options such as Ritalin and Adderall are available.
Thanks, Robert. I dropped the ball on that AADD question.
