Pammi 0 #1 December 22, 2003 While at our work Christmas party this last week I had a fit of giggling (the alcohol consumed had nothing to do with it I'm sure ) over the idea of one of the attorneys I work for doing a tandem. When he first started there he saw all the stickers on my car and mentioned he'd always wanted to try skydiving (of course) but in Australia they told him he was too big when he tried (he's about 6'5 or so and about 270 I'm guessing). I got to thinking about him doing a tandem with Chucky Blue and Merrick mentioned how Chuck would look like those babies that get carried on a parent's back in that sling most likely. I just got to laughing and couldn't stop. When I tried to explain, everyone just looked at me. C'mon. Even a whuffo shoulda understood that! Then again, I tend to find humor much easier then others sometimes. I have a happy meal bobble-head Pumba on my dash in my car because it makes me smile. Just when I thought it was safe to share a moment with a wuffo. Pammi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelel01 1 #2 December 22, 2003 Don't worry; I thought it was hysterical!! Don't you just love it when you get a funny image in your head that just kills you, and no matter how hard you try to explain it, people don't get? Been there. No worries.

dropoutdave 0 #3 December 22, 2003 One of the TM's in Cape Town took a midget up for her 30th birthday. Was absolutely hilarious, he just picked her up and strapped her on and walked to the plane and when he landed he just walked back with her still strapped to him. He can't have that fear of midgets that I have. 'Small hands, smell like cabbage.' ------------------------------------------------------ May Contain Nut traces......

McDuck 0 #4 December 22, 2003 Yeah, Like Kele said, don't worry about it. I worked at a big law firm once and I found that, except for the new associates who are running their asses ragged trying to please the partners, attorneys tend to be a rather stodgy bunch. Humor is a rare commodity with that bunch.Kevin - Sonic Beef #5 - OrFun #28 "I never take myself too seriously, 'cuz everybody know fat birds don't fly." - FLC Online communities: proof that people never mature much past high school.

flyinghonu 0 #5 December 22, 2003 I did the exact same thing when I started to think about my "manly" husband doing one - except he had no idea why I was laughing (unfortunately, no alcohol was involved ).

Pammi 0 #6 December 22, 2003 No kidding there...NO humor. It can kinda make it more fun tho...cuz you can laugh at THEM too. A couple weeks ago I went on a road trip with my boss and his assistant,which is also kinda my boss but a friend too. Anyway, when I called to tell the kids goodnight cuz it was gonna be late getting home, Merrick described to me the pic attached. Again, fit of laughter...me, not them of course :) I like to laugh tho and screw you if you don't think it's funny Pammi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VanillaSkyGirl 6 #7 December 23, 2003 I broke into explosive laughter when I read you initial post. Good God, my whuffo boyfriend just asked me, "What's so funny, honey?" Of course, the question just made me laugh harder and harder. Thank God that he's watching a movie and has ADD. He has probably already moved on to something more interesting!
