Dont run screaming. The pic was taken in Dallas in October 2001. I am the one on the left in the Vest and Mardi Gras Beads. The guy on the right is a EXTREMELY good friend of mine ( no not my better half) just a good friend.
Glad to put a name and face together. I didn 't run screaming, but will have another JD shot. Not because of the picture, but becasue just returned from furniture shopping. Didn't buy a thing. Everything I like all I got, was 'you are just patronizing me' so I said choose anything you want it's fine with me. You guessed it, the trip ended with her mad at me. I will never figure out what goes on in the mind of woman, especially when you tell them to get anything they want. That translates into apathy. Go figure. THREE!!!!
Think about what a women does ( flashes her boobs and does un savory acts to get beads)
When I lost all the weight back in the mid 90s, I had a good 6 pack going( in my stomach.) and visited Mardi Gras and Southern Decadence in 95,96,97,98,and 2000.
I wanted to show off my chest for beads even tho I was shy. soooooo I flashed my chest, and showed my goodies.again I also earned a set of Mardi gras beads that weigh about 3 pounds by running up and down Bourbon Street nekkid.
I did catch quite a few ( about 1000)
I bought about 600
and earned about 1000 during the 5 times there.
The rest I cannot reveal especially in this forum as it is very much
I know alot of people are cool with alot of things reading about what 2 men did to each other is still hard to stomach. However I did earn a cool set of Cleopatra beads ( a set of beads done in a choker style with dripping beads in a triangle style) by doing something with a female that again I cant describe for the reasons above.
I'll just go with what you said and leave it at that. Have you ever seen the Krewe De Vieux parade at Mardi Gras? It usually takes place a couple of weeks before Fat Tuesday. I was down there working and was there for it. I have never seen stuff like that in a parade. Talk about anything goes! It was fun. You would have fit right in runing the streets naked.
CP it kills me you were next to her and froze. I have this mental picture of you looking like Ralphie in the Christmas Story when he turns in the best "What I want for Christmas" paper.
CP I am all over Cher like flys on rice. She Rules!!!! Big Cher and Chaka Fan. to bad you dont play for the same team you are just a straight version of me!!!!! hehehe
Ray--I truly did. I was standing there at the MGM arena. One of the green coats was showing me where my tickets were. (The casino comped them and wanted to make sure I was happy and lost more money) I was in the second row for that concert at stage left. Here truly was the woman of my dreams and I could do was squeek out the word, Cher? She just smiled at me touched my arm and said enjoy the show, and walked off, me with mouth on the floor, and I tripped over my tounge. She did wave and smile at me during her Bang Bang performance. What an idiot I was. But she was wearing the fishnet outfit. She has the warmest eyes, a figure to die for, and that smile. How I wish I could turn back time, no pun intended.
Thump- Ray can not keep up - you already told us how you got the beads. But interesting non-the-less. Nice pict! It's always good to put a face w/ the name. They've already seen me but I'll give you the link so you can see my pict.
Great picture, Thump - thanks for sharing. I'm much more the guy in Mardi Gras situations. I went to a bar once and was wearing a boa. This guy there just HAD to have it... I figured flashing his chest just wasn't a fair turnabout... So I got him to drop trou for it! So remember, Thump, next time, bring a boa.
I've only been to local Mardi Gras shindigs - I'd love to experience the real thing. I figure it's probably alot like the party scenes from Wild Orchid, what fun - particularly for a Halloween fanatic like me, with all the brilliant costumes!
