SlashDog 0 #1 July 25, 2006 I'm stuck at work in an office Indiana. I feel a little better after a quick walk and chatting with my girl. I have to keep this post short. In a few minutes, a Cessna is landing in the parking lot to pick me up and fly me to someplace tropical. Jimmy Buffet is the pilot today. I'll be jumping out at 14500 and free falling over the beautiful ocean, hook turning and slipping down between two palm trees and swooping down and grazing my toes in a long graceful trail through beautiful white sand of the remote beach, where there is a margarita, umbrella and hammock waiting. Iz is there with his ukulele to sing to me and a few friends, while I chill in the hammock and feed the cute sea otters that are frolicking in the sun around two trees where the hammock is tied. The dolphins are out playing in the surf and they are calling my name in Dolphinese and jumping and spinning to try to get me to parachute again because it makes them laugh. No one wants to leave the beach because they all know that in just two hours, the sun will set and the gentle, fiery, red and orange splashed sky will explode in slow motion with waves of happy water colors that will bring tears to the eyes of all who gaze on it with it's perfect, pure beauty. Each person will privately and unexpectedly be reminded of a long forgotten childhood memory of their very own, that they hadn't remembered in years. Mine will be indistinct and hazy in it's circumstances but the feeling will be crystal clear. It will be a pleasant day-dream of some long ago time when for some reason, I was posing for a family picture. I was two or younger but I knew what a picture was and found myself between two women who loved me very much, maybe one was Mom or maybe not, but they were beautiful and happy and sat me between them in their laps, the picture was forgotten and all I could think about is how safe I felt and how this must be what people call, "love". And as each person enjoys the epiphany of their own personal reverie of pleasant recall, the only thing anyone will say out loud will be my friend Eddie, who says, simply, "Nice."...and Iz will quietly strum, "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" on his uke, almost as though not to disturb the delicate, wispy, cotton candy streaks of pink-crimson sunset with words. Then someone will fart and we'll laugh until someone pees. You should come here some time. Everyone misses you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWFlyer 2 #2 July 25, 2006 There's this really cool key on your keyboard. It might be called "Enter" or "Return." Or it might just be an arrow. No matter... find it, use it... and maybe I'll read your posts."There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please. And with it comes the only basic human duty, the duty to take the consequences." -P.J. O'Rourke Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
