It is good to be back

[monkeybrow]

Finally arrived back to mother Cy nation....feels like I never was on holiday...the weather is a mirror likeness to home.

Now I wish to nibble on some Rebel arse

[HiltonMagic]

Welcome back! Wish you could've been here Thursday.

Welcome back! Wish you could've been here Thursday.

me as well mate...and I wouldn't have missed it if not for a family issue...I thank you for the welcome.

Now on to Sonic!

And what did you bring Amy?

[monkeybrow]

quite an interesting journey....met a likeable yank in the airport once arriving stateside..while waiting on my connection to Chicago. She observed my "iowa state alumni" sweat-top...wrinkled her brow with sexual intent...and leaned in close (with the ample goodies peeking at me mind you) to discuss in hushed terms. With the slight scent of vodka and mentos mints...she whispered " You are a hawkeye right? I almost went to school there."

I quickly ordered another drink and made note as to why I hate god.

lol....Outside the state of Iowa, this happens to me often when traveling for work. Additionally, not many "football fans" even know Iowa State is in the Big XII conference.

sad really....one of the "true" and special places that I have been to....and is so vastly underrated.

The offending lass above was from Chicago and did offer her contact digits....the question to you mates is this....Is all progress beyond repair once the massive faux paus is committed? Or does the self-respecting ISU Alumnus give her the hindquarters boot to the curb?

It is your call.

It all depends on the weather on your next visit to the Windy City. It can get quite chilly bunking alone there. Perhaps you could give her a lesson on the finer points of the Big Twelve in exchange for some of her finer points.

The state of Iowa may only have one university but they sure do grow great potatoes there.

The state of Iowa may only have one university but they sure do grow great potatoes there.

Back in the 80's, some enterprising young Iowa student printed up and sold a highly successful t-shirt. It was a gold shirt with black screenprinting on the front. It had a highly fancified (but fake) university crest on it that featured piles corn, potatoes, and buckeyes amidst the typical eagles and banners and books and such that is usually found on university crests. Around the edges it read: "The University of Iowa- Idaho City, Ohio"

It came from Iowa City, yes, but it's still clever, and it's a pretty good summary of our problem with ignorant coast-ers. Wish I could still find one...

cyclonekj...

perhaps....have you been there?...nothing is better in the summer then feet up at the Drake....taking the L down to the grand Wrigley...have a fat weenie with onions.

as far as the gal above...her professionally enhanced "finer" points cannot equal out her obvious ingnorance of ISU...and I am not quite sure if I have the time to be the "professor henry higgins" to her "eliza doolittle". Takes away good beverage time.

Yes, the lack of ISU knowledge is a big strike against her. But perhaps (being the perfect gentleman that you are, Monkey), you could make time to be the "Professor Ron Jeremy" to her "Jenna Jameson."

Now, as to where I have and haven't been. It is a much-storied and infamous past, but all I can say is "A gentleman never tells-- at least until after he has consumed many an adult beverage and his girlfriend is out of earshot."

Now...I do not participate in the support of the amercian porn industry...So I cannot answer the above....(I break out in hives upon the sight of naked hotness)

Very mysterious indeed...I shall visualize your past as a sordid affair...a high rolling market-stocks man that flamed out on booze...pills...and hot women...only to rise to power yet again thru his written memoirs which rocketed up the bestseller listing. Perhaps a congressional bid later on?

Last summer I was having beers with some locals in Cork, Ireland, and the first thing they asked me when I told them I'm from Iowa is if I went to Iowa State. The second thing was if I knew the members of Slipknot.

So I guess we've got that going for us.
