Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Oh, you got that right, FF -- Boca is one giant Jerry-visits-his-parents-in-Florida episode. My mother and her friends try to get me to come to the infamous "early bird" dinners with them; you know, where the last meal of the day starts at 4 in the afternoon. I keep telling them thanks, but no thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 lol, I'd prefer the forties range, but where I live that's half the age of some of the population here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 ****. Ever been pinched in the caboose by a 90 year old man? Not a fun experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFavell Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I always end up with flirty old men chatting me up in the grocery store.... never a Charles Farrell or a Gary Cooper. I think I'd settle for a Joe E. Brown at this point... most of the ones who like me are twice his age... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coopsgirl Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I can't say I've ever been pinched by an elderly man but I was slapped in the butt by a total stranger in a London pub once. Didn't see what he looked like though but I'm pretty sure he wasn't quite that old. I'm getting closer to 32 everyday and I'm not looking to go younger than that so for now I'd still prefer 30s.

Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I love it when Mr. Rooney gets on the bus at the end, lol. "Save Ferris!" My mother goes to bed around 10 p.m. (except when she's hooked on a great TCM movie later in the evening) and her friends around 9-ish. The seniors all lug around these gazillion coupons that they bring everywhere, to the restaurant, the supermarket, etc. Frugality is a virtue, but down here it sort of squeezes out life's spontenaity.

From what I hear, everyone is clipping the coupons nowadays, or most folks anyway. It's not like gas prices give much leeway to most families. I do think I've found ways to maintain some degree of spontaneity even when being frugal, but I won't go into the details lest you might think less of me.

Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 LOL, yeah, I wouldn't mind Joe E. Brown -- "Zowie!" I could have dinner on his yacht.... Well, maybe if you smile back at the coots you could get some free groceries. But if they persist, use Jennifer Grey's line on them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coopsgirl Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I've never met a Charles or Gary anywhere either but once in Scotland I did meet an English guy who was the spitting image of actor Mark Frankel (who sadly died in '96 I believe, in a motorcycle accident). I had a major crush on him (and still do) and he was flirting with me something fierce. He invited me and the girl I was with to meet him and some of his friends at a club that night and we almost went. But, I decided to go with my friends on a pub crawl instead. He seemed like a pretty sweet guy but I probably made the right decision, I guess . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The old guys I run into usually look like they are eying my groceries...it's probably not even me they want.... Coopsgirl- I have a lot of those semisweet regrets-I'm still thinking I did the right thing, but boy, oh, boy, I get a lot of joy out of thinking about those foreign boys I turned down...

Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I was never pinched by American men in Manhattan, but I do recall a South American who took liberties. He actually looked like Juan Peron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankGrimes Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Good evening, Black and Blue Mermaid -- I wonder what will happen when I go to Ireland this coming spring..... You'll get pinched by leprechauns. Good evening, Miss G -- In fact, I haven't been pinched since ever so long, not since I was in L.A. Must be the cold climate. The cold climate has everything to do with it. Who wants to pinch a glacier? Your fingers may stick together and you could get frostbite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sure would not be happy to see some old guy eying my goodies in the market. Or in any other place, for that matter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 I'd like to go to that pub in THE MATCHMAKER where Janeane Garafolo has to pick the guy who sings the best Irish song, then give him a kiss. Then I'd like to have a romantic interlude in the Aran Islands, surrounded by mist, bleeting sheep, tartans, Guinness, etc. Leprechauns can join in. I want a pot of gold, I want my fair share, I want what's coming to me, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronxgirl48 Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 Hello, crablet. I'll probably stay in Ireland and marry Tyrone Power and live in a quaint little cottage and leave milk out at night for Cecil Kellaway. Are you giving me diamonds for my birthday? How many carats? No, I said carats, not carrots. Are you feeling well? I sense you might be coming down with a cold. Make some chicken corn soup and get to bed right now, you need your sleep, even if you are a 5,000 year old mummy. I'll tuck you in. But that's it.
