  1.  

     

    Predatory Shower Curtain

     

    Under the shower stream

    Soaping myself

    I bend just a little

    And that’s all it takes.

    The touch on my arse,

    So gentle, so creepy,

    Clammy and clinging

    Unbidden, unyielding.

     

    Out of the shower,

    I’m towelling dry.

    But the moment I bend

    I feel contact so sly.

    Such a tender caress

    Might be welcome indeed

    Were the toucher more man

    Or the touchee less me.

  2. Me too. The cat has a cat flap which she's perfectly capable of using, but she'll sit by the front or back door yowling until I let her out, and then again, sometimes just moments later demanding to be let in. I've even known her to be let in, run straight out of the cat flap and within seconds be sitting by the back door again demanding to be let in - again...

  3. Hmmm... maybe stupidly, I thought to start a thread and post images that made me laugh from the web in it.

    I've posted one (above) but when I try to reply to the thread with another image, I get a message saying that the 177kb limit would be exceeded and I can't do it. Even if I try to post a picture that's only 80kb. Am I doing something wrong, or is this something that just isn't possible with this software?

    Maybe I need to post a link to a URL, rather than uploading the image from my local hard drive...

    The trouble is that I've downloaded the images I wanted to post, and now I can't remember where on the web I found them!

    Sorry if I'm blundering around here like a newbie!

  4. When we end a call, we 'hang up'. Which goes back to the days of the very early 'candlestick' and similar phones, where you replaced the earpiece into a cradle which 'sagged' with its weight and disconnected the call. Telecoms engineers still talk about 'on hook' and 'off hook' to refer to the status of a line.

    I love language, where a particular usage has become ingrained and continues to be used when the literal meaning of the words involved are no longer in any way relevant.

     

  5. My prostate exam was not a pleasant experience, bent over the side of a gurney, while the doctor prodded around inside me with his finger. When it was over, the doctor left the room and a nurse came in to take blood from me, and spoke three simple words that made my blood run cold...

    "Who was that?"

  6. Thank you so much Cole. I was tickled pink to see that Mike had featured my little story last month. It's a bit of a favourite of mine, and it makes me very happy whenever I discover that someone else likes it too.

    Now there's a whole 'nother set of Dude's Picks to check out, so I have some very pleasant evenings ahead.
