So we got all gussied up for the big gala. I had to wear new black suit and new tie and new shoes and new gay pocket thingy. We had our car service guy Hassan take a photo outside our house before we left to go to the event.
The wife wore an Anna Lucia dress in a sparkly black fabric that she had made special. And the freakin' shoes she busted my stones about the day before. You see she had ordered them on my Amazon account since I have one and she doesn't. But she miss wrote the credit card and the email they sent somehow went to my Spam account. She freaked out and we had to call and pay extra to have them overnight them to us. But it all worked out and we got everything in time.
They had a DJ to spin some records after the Sugar Hill Gang finished their performance. In honor of Donna Summer he spinned a bunch of Disco and the wife and I took to the dance floor and danced the hustle to the amazement of they youngun's. We were spinning and twirling and going crazy and created our own little spot on the dance floor. Everybody got up and danced to some old time disco.
We filmed a segment for WPIX Channel 11 today that will air closer to the premiere of "Big Brooklyn Style." They have this giant mobile studio which is really just a big bus that was parked outside the store. The TLC publicity girl was there for the interview. They only wanted Lisa because she was doing some fashion Do's and Don'ts. I think that is how it is gonna work 99% of the time. I will not be on camera because they want to talk to Lisa. She is the "Dress Boss." But there are other reasons too.
One of the guys who drove the bus was listening to us talk about the gala and how we had danced to the disco hits of the 1970's. He is my age and of course he had to say "Disco sucks I only listen to rock and roll." I go "Hey everybody loves rock and roll but disco will get you laid." The publicity lady burst out laughing and said "I see why they had to cut a lot of your lines."
Love to love you baby!

Jim, I love your homo..err homer hankie in you suit pocket.
Lisa and you look good together dude. I can see why you're pussy whipped.
lol, Nick.
Hey I got four of them now.
It was buy one get one free day at the clothing store.
They call the homo .....errr the homer hankie the "Aaron Rodgers."
Not that there is anything wrong with that.
That's not the dress she wore was it? Did she change clothes somewhere along the line? Wasn't her dress floor length?
She looks gorgeous in both dresses, you look gorgeous too Trooper, love the hanky.
Disco'd the night away, sounds like fun!
No that was the dress she wore this year. The other photo was the dress from the year before.
"Does this hanky make me look gay?"
What a handsome couple!
Love her pink shoes and the black dress. You should have made your hanky match her shoes.
Wear a white suit when you disco. It's all the rage, in 1977. Ask your fellow NYer, Vinnie Barbarino, he knows. I hear he's the manly sort of dude. A man's man, as it were.
Hey just because he wore a hankie in his pocket while he was getting a massage it doesn't mean anything.
I don't even want to know what "pocket" is a ephemism for.
Are you doing a Charlie Chaplin imitation w/ those feet?
All you need is the cane. You got the Chaplin mustache.
Wasn't he a commie?
Not sure which picture I prefer, last year's or this one; both have their own charms, as do the characters revealed. It's fun to hear and see the story develop.
"Does this hanky make me look gay?"
LoL Allen.
What would be so cool. Take the hankie out and blow your nose on it and stuff it into your right back pocket. You did have pockets right? Watch people's heads explode.
Seriously...you guys look great and sounds like you had a really fun time.
GOOD FOR YOU!!
Too bad they are cutting out the really good lines.
:-D
We were spinning and twirling and going crazy and created our own little spot on the dance floor.
Did you have to wipe it up afterwards?
Lisa looks great. Glad you had a good time.
You guys look awesome.
And really happy.
Sure they look awesome, but while those two glamorous celebrities were dancing on the backs of the working class, AllieOop and rhhardin were putting their lives on the line for social justice.

It's hard to choose a favorite!
-Cherry Ames in Retirement, complete with black fishnets and a nurse's cap.
-The National Nurse from the Clown Bloq who doesn't have health care and "did the operation herself".
-The one peering through upside-down peace glasses.
Quite a collection, complete with green Robin Hood Hats and Red Feathers.
Drama--the new national pastime
One of my favorites is the sign that says, NATO needs war! We need vegetables.
Have NATO forces been carrying out surgical air strikes against veggie farmers? WHY IS THE CORPORATE MEDIA NOT REPORTING THIS??
I found out some unsettling news today.
My Indian husband breast fed on him mom's tit until he was 9 years old.
I am not shitting you.
We were talking about that Time cover and he said it was no big deal and it is common in India.
I am in a tizzy right now.
The private school he went to had a breast feeding room where all the moms would come to and whip out their tit and let their nine year old boy suck on it.
I am still trying to process this.
Holy cow Titus!
Tits?
Wholly cow tits?
Or skim?
Amazing spring day in beautiful Wisconsin. Got my garden planted, no more freezes this spring. All the farmers are out plowing and planting too, if they haven't already done so.
Went canoeing with my grandkids this morning around the shore of our lake, this is what makes living in this state so worthwhile!
I'm tired, and despite sunblock, got a bit burnt, darn, stored up some Vit.D I'm sure. Sitting here on my deck, enjoying my iced coffee, life is good. I think this winter will be spent in CA, need warmth.
Hey maybe you can visit all of my california commenters like Crazy Aunt Mildred on Bewitched or something.
You definitely have an Alice Ghostly thing going on.
Alice Ghostley! Whaaaat?
What about Sophia Loren, or Ava Gardner? A Wisconsin version of course.
Well Alice Ghostley is a Wisconsin Sophia Loren. Just sayn'
I thought we discussed all the cultural difference before we wed.
I knew about the cow being god and getting fed before they ate dinner, the caste system, the slum dogs, the stray dogs, people shitting and pissing in the streets of Calcutta.
But I never knew about this and it hit me little a thunder bolt.
Of course, I had to call my mommy for advice and she was a little perplexed. Maybe I should not of told her.
He told me the reason for doing this in India has something to do with "bonding.
Give me a fucking break.
I think they love their boys, I bet the little girls don't get boobie that long.
You can't eat cows in India. Is sucking on their tits ok?
Look great. Good to hear about the Dancing, guess the leg is like new.
Mrs. Weened-at-nine has a better ring to it than Mrs. Two-dog-fucking, just sayin'.
Never cross a man in shiny shiny shoes. Just say'n.
Titus, just go with the flow!
Titus, Some moms in Italy will feed their children[although I only saw it w/ sons] until they're even older. I'm not talking about breast feeding, I'm talking about knife/fork/spoon feeding. I saw a very normal, handsome boy who was 10 or 11 sitting in a restaurant, next to mom, being fed dinner. My daughter is one who loves to stare and I had to kick her under the table.
