Indecent Proposal
So Chris and I planned on going camping this weekend. We’re supposed to go out to a campsite over in Endicott near the church. The plan is to hike around a bit, catch some fish, and cook it over an open fire. Then, we’ll sleep out under the stars and talk of life, storoes, and the pursuit of… funtertainment. Sunday morning, we’ll pack up and go straight to church. Preferably, without showering. Anyways, that WAS the plan. And it was a good plan indeed.
Somewhere along the way though, I think there was some kind of miscommunication.
Chris just showed up at my house a few minutes ago wearing…. good golly… I dont even know what he’s wearing. I have no idea what the boy is thinking. I’m not sure if he’s going to kill me with that shovel or if he’s trying to seduce me with those legs. What is going on here?
Chris: Hey
Me: Whoa…wow… hey..uh… what’s going on?
Chris: Just getting ready for our camping trip.
Me: Like that?
Chris: Yeah. We’re still sharing a tent right?
Me (slowly): I don’t think I’m going to need one anymore…
If you dont see me at church on Sunday, please start looking for my body… we’ll be camping here.

how brokeback…
The legend will start up that he keeps the bodies of his former camping partners in the salt box, and then spreads them out over the snow to conceal the evidence.
Deary me… Home Alone moment there…
I haven’t laughted this hard in a very long time. “That’s my boy.” Never quite sure what’s in his mind, but I’ll bet you have a blast. The picture says it all. Thanks so much for sharing it. Looking forward to your up-date. lala
I looked closer at the picture. Shame on you Alban. He owes you 2. lala
“Revenge is a dish best served cold.” lala
^You know it’s a successful prank if the mom gets fooled. Burn!
rats, clearly by the comment time you did survive until Sunday. I’ll have to get my point across more clearly to Chris next time. :-p
Sorry, GreekPhysique, but he kept standing between me and the hatchet.
Don’t you worry none, my friend. The mail is coming.
haha, that is funny. what exactly is he wearing???
ALBAN YEE! YOU WERE NOT AROUND WHEN WE ACTUALLY CAME TO VISIT!
is that head superimposed on another body? i know there’s some kind of catch that makes it a joke but i can’t figure it out. but then again i’m probably the easiest person on earth to fool with just about anything…
Mmmm, Photoshop…
Funny!
So whose body was that anyway? Dave’s?
yes, i’m frightened for the person who actually is in that……thing.
RYC: I think that the theme of redemption is a wonderful take on B&B. I wish I would have thought of that…. The wonderful thing about fairy tales (and really, all literature)is that they can interpreted in so many directions.
The picture was taken at dinner in Ohio.. when we had dinner with Baba’s college friend you and were sitting next to her angry teenage son.
^No, Chris, are you kidding? It was my own body!
It should be pretty obvious which team was mine. At any rate, even if (somehow) this World Series is played well, it’ll pull in last in the ratings and baseball drifts further towards sports oblivion.
Nobody cares about the Tigers or their “Cindarella Story.” Cindarella stories don’t impress people. People in San Diego aren’t pulling for the Tigers because they blew for a long time and now they’re having one year of not playing like garbage, which they will promptly fall back down to a la the Red Sox and the White Sox. Same thing for the A’s, who have a train wreck in the body of Frank Thomas who can do nothing but embarrass himself.
People don’t seem to realize that there is an endemic problem with baseball, and the past four/five years have been warning signs that if things continue, baseball will keel over as a major sport in this country. When you have terrible teams have one or two years of borrowed success and when you force teams to play in awful television markets, it kills the sport’s popularity. Throw in steroids and you have a dwindling audience of people who just can’t be bothered to watch AAA players turn a 162-game season into a joke.
The real damage won’t manifest itself until around 2012 or so, when the current batch of TV contracts run out. Do you think ESPN, Fox, NBC et al are going to look at the World Series finishing fourth and pulling sub-10.0 ratings and say, “Okay baseball, we’ll give you hundreds of millions of dollars so people can continue to not watch your awful product”? Come back to me when a league that cannot run without billions of dollars has its legs cut out from under it and teams are forced to go tits up left and right. We’ll see how good the Mets are when their miniscule TV market can’t convince the commish to let them stay afloat.
I’m not blaming any particular team. But this is the reality, it has happened before, and unless some drastic changes are made this will come to pass.
I think the only thing that would make that picture better is if you could engineer it so that when you moved the hat string his head wobbled.
