[Simonthepilgrim]

What I wouldn't do now is very different from what I wouldn't do when I was out of money, abroad and very, very hungry.

[Airmech]

What do you do Xrayman? if you dont mind me asking.

[zenmonk_genryu]

Simon....3 out of 3 for me... there are still some things I wouldn't do....

Simon,

You were a broad once?

I hope you mean this literally, ZM.

For some reason, I'm thinking it's "code" for actually doing something else... ;)

[zenmonk_genryu]

It's literal lol, when I was working in Greece for a few months, many years ago.

As little as possible Airmech.


Well, now I teach Radar, Navigational Aids and Instrument Landing System (ILS).

To you all

P.S. Thanks for all your responses, everyone:cheer:

[federica]

[Xrayman]

Shirley you must be kidding.

[Xrayman]

[federica]

[Brigid]

Love that movie. "Knock yaself pro, slick." ie; "Don't be so naive, Arthur."
"Um, excuse me. I speak Jive."

I also have to add "The Party" to my list in the "New Buddhist..." thread.

[buddhafoot]

BF,

Cast your mind back. You'll remember!


I think I was remembering the wrong thing - that was the problem.

Polishing the Cucumber...

Ay!

I actually worked in a morgue once. It was quite fascinating, not to mention a good lesson in impermanence!

[YogaMama]

Simon - I remember what you did when you were hungry and out of cash!! BF - did you figure it out yet?

[buddhafoot]

Did I figure what out yet?

-bf

[YogaMama]

What Simon used to do for a job when he was hard pressed for some cash!

Isn't that what you guys were talking about?? Am I just having another "blonde moment"?

[buddhafoot]

You know, my mind is just a mess, so don't ask me for clarification.

As for Simon, I'm glad to "know" someone that has had those sort of experiences - but I don't know if I could have done that. I'm sure he has some great stories though.

My life is just tooooooo boring.

-bf

[buddhafoot]

Actually,

I was making a comment earlier in this thread about a job that ZM had once - a cucumber polisher.

Now, if that ain't full of double entendre, I don't know what is!

-bf

[YogaMama]

Why would one need to really polish a cucumber (literally...don't be getting any ideas, bf)? I wish ZM was here to explain that a little further for us!

[buddhafoot]

I know... it sounds very... erotic...

Actually, I think he said it had something to do with when he was living in Greece or something.

-bf

[YogaMama]

"Erotic" wasn't really the word I would have used. Something more like "weird", "strange", or "a big fat waste of time and energy" are more like it.

[buddhafoot]

Yoda,

You gotta lighten up a little bit.

Don't be so uptight.

Let yer hair down and relax a bit.

-bf

[YogaMama]

How did you find that picture of me?? I thought I had burned all of them.

Lighten up?? Are you kidding me?? I could be any lighter!

[buddhafoot]

Well, I sure didn't take it when I was standing in your shrubs outside your window last week!

-bf

[YogaMama]

That really makes you sound like a big pervert.
