Berlichtingen Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 How I spent my winter vacation Part Two: La Bohème, or why you shouldn't use curry for nose drops I shall begin by saying that we (Persephone and I {my mistress had the night off}) started the evening at an Indian Restaurant. I can hear you now, "why the hell do we care what you had for dinner?" All will become clear later. La Bohème is the tale of four artists in Paris (four lay about losers if you ask me {leads me to believe that the Italian writers of librettos were reincarnated as writers of primetime dramas}). Music wasn't bad, and the sets were masterfully constructed. By the third act, I was feeling the need to liven things up. Now you are probably wondering how one goes about livening up things at an opera. Well, fear not for I shall regale you with my exploits. I began by inducing myself to a fit of coughing. Now, being the sovereign gentleman that I am, I committed my first mistake of the evening... I tried to suppress the coughing. As you may know, suppressing a violent cough may induce the spew reflex... which it did in this case. This, of course, led me to the decision to leave the auditorium in some haste. Now comes mistake number two... not wanting to spew all over the fine ladies and gentlemen near me (nor faire Persephone for that matter) I attempted to suppress the rapid exit of my fine Indian meal (You are aware that curry is a major part of Indian cuisine, aren't you? That is important to the next part of my tale). As you may know, explosions (in this case, digestive pyrotechnics) follow the path of least resistance. Denied the usual point of exit, my dinner (remember the curry?) made its escape through my sinuses. Unfortunately, sinuses were not designed to allow the passage of solid matter. In fact, they were designed to allow the passage of air to the lungs. It was at this point that I discovered that the Heimlich maneuver does in fact work (wish I had gotten the name of that fine gentleman so you could hunt him down and chastise him for saving my life). For those of you so dense that you are still wondering what the significance of curry is... my sinuses are still on fire. Needless to say, we passed on the fourth act.

Mace Posted February 24, 2002 Author Share Posted February 24, 2002 Of course, it would be justice if the curry was Lamb, but I doubt that. Mace PS Croda, still haven't done that turn yet! *giggle* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledge59 Posted February 24, 2002 Share Posted February 24, 2002 Seanachai boomed: SLEDGE59, WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU? STEP IN AND TAKE QUESTIONS, YOU PILLOCK. All right already! Can’t a lazy squire ever get any sleep around here? Okay, okay… I’ll take care of this riff-raff for you. {Draws rusty, broken sword from soiled scabbard and slowly advances} Where are they? I’LL MAKE MINCEMEAT OUT OF YOU VARMINTS! {Trips over own foot} Look there… I’ve skinned my knee. Some puny SSN will PAY for this! Hey you! Private Wanker. You’ve paraded your ignorance by obtusely posting on the MBT and by failing to acknowledge the main purpose of the place. What exactly are you doing here if you don’t want a game? Do you want to know the Donkey? That might have been arranged, but now it appears that even he doesn’t like you. If you DO want a game, you must PAY ATTENTION and reread the rules, then post like you have an inkling of what they mean, idjit.
