POLL: the final step before ninth_wave reveals all!

Pete - Of course we're flirting, but we are online you know, a certain level of decorum and restraint seems in order - 10,000+ views, not exactly a chat room. You just missed Susanne, and she does ask about you.

"We could go to something like Taz's "parting is such sweet sorrow""
Ok I'm dumb again, don't get it.

Being silly. He said that when he was leaving the other day.

August and October... best times to visit Reno, yes?

August is best because of 'Hot August Nights' - 10 days of 50's and 60's R&R and custom cars to the max. Mucho fun and things to do.

Are you leaving? NOOOO.

Noooo, not leaving.

Love looking at cars! You dress 50s for it too? Yeh, what fun!

Good!

Some people do, they really get into it with sock hops and things, a lot of live music with local bands doing 50's stuff, dancing in the streets, car shows all over town (very cool). Thousands of fans pouring into town, food, drink, casinos 24/7, it CAN be fun!

Skip the casinos? Is that alright? Not my cup o' tea. Do you like to dance? What's your favorite?

edit- Actually, I know part of the second ??. It's in my head now... really, it's on the headset.
Is it alright to skip the casinos? Or is it a favorite for you?

More than alright. I rarely go to the casinos, and never to gamble, only to go to the restaurants now and then - great places to eat but can get expensive. I do like to dance but have been out of the club scene long enough to not have a favorite, just rock, no mosh pits thank you, never liked them, even back in the 80's in San Francisco, when punk started in North Beach, I thought mosh pits were weird . Don't dance quite as hot as I 'think' I used to. Oh well oh well, not 20 any more.

edit - "Actually, I know part of the second ??". No, 50's is not my favorite (if that's what you mean). I think I could definitely get caught up though.

edit/edit - "It's in my head now... really, it's on the headset." You keep editing, I'm falling behind!

Great!

I don't even remember the last time I danced and used to love to. My favorite is something like that same song. Can't believe I didn't know what's a mosh pit. Never heard of it till Taz talked about it. Ninth, we're old enough to have earned not being Spring chickens any more.

edit- No, that's not what I mean...

HOT
Not behind at all!

edit- You know GMTA
*sigh*

Mosh pits started with punk rock back in the early 80's. I mean dudes jumping up on the stage and hurling themselves in to a crowd of zonked out freaks literally smashing into each other. Fun huh? That's when R&R started to get weird for me and I no longer could relate to a lot of it. Punk rock was just the start.

You're right, my 16 year old daughter (started late) calls me a geezer. I keep having to keep her straight on that one, at the same time I like to play along, but she knows I'm not(I hope).

Ok, what's a 'punk'? and what's on the headset? Help me out here. I must be slow.

I'm sure she knows you're not. If I know it, she's got to.

The thingies you light firecrackers with are punks... Berlin Take my breath away... Snow Patrol Chasing cars... songs to dance to.
No, you're not. I'm just not talking enough. (edit- rare occasion on that one. lol)

Good that makes three of us, because I definitely know it too, not a question in my mind.

I know about those kind of punks. and I kind of thought you meant Berlin (GMTA) but wasn't sure. When you hear that song do you really think of dancing? Not me.

Best you don't talk enough. We don't need to spell everything out. Miss M's going to whack us pretty hard as it is.

HOT yeh GMTA... Now what do you think? Both?

Yeh, she's gonna get us good. She'll think we deserve it but we don't.

edit- My daughters always talked about my youth as 'back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth'. They still do, just not as often since they're older themselves (25 & 29).

Go back and watch that 'Top Gun' scene again. ol Tom and Kelly weren't exactly dancing (in the literal sense anyway.)

Of course we don't deserve it, but we just don't get any appreciation for our subtlety and restraint. Rodney Dangerfield used to say 'I just can't get no respect! (I'm going to have to find some new smiley faces, they don't give us enough choices.)

edit - they'll get theirs someday, from their own kids

edit/edit - Actually dancing sounds very hot, now that you've managed to implant that in my wee little brain.

Oh I know they weren't, yet they were...

What do you mean, we don't deserve it? I do wish we had more choices for smileys. I need to put the links in a notepad though for like last Thursday and wanted that rotflmao one so bad. lol

The oldest is already realizing this. And she can't believe 30's right around the corner either. Youngest doesn't have kids except her li'l furbaby.

Yes, it does, doesn't it.

...and so are we.

Well ok, we do deserve it. Miss M, its just going to turn to steam the second it hits us.

...tingles

That's what we deserve. We're being pretty darn good, aren't we?

Time to switch places...

Ok, yes we deserve it from Miss M too. Or we could go out in the rain and save Miss M the trouble.

Mmmmm....

OMG, do you think we've entertained everyone enough for one evening? I think I hear those dreams of cookies a'callin me, what a sugar rush.

edit - you're right, she's probably getting tired of whackin us, maybe we should spare her
