Tantalize

Is it underhanded, teasing, tormenting, ingenious or perhaps just desperate to know what works?
Now go with me here…
Some nights I have people reading this thing by the masses what I euphemistically call my beloved drivel.
And then some nights it appears I would have to sell my young to get your attention, what gives?
Don’t you all know that this is FREE ENTERTAINMENT!
Not unlike non-cable or non-satellite TV or if you spied on your neighbors, not that I would ever do that or think you would either, ha!
But you must admit some are more than interesting, the neighbors, that is …when you casually glance out the front or back picture windows you had installed to capture those great Florida views, right?
Any-who, this is all coming from someone who has much too much time on her hands, ha!
Silly has worked before with most of your tastes and so maybe that is what I should do, huh?
Let’s step it up and put it up for discussion; what makes you read anything?

Interest in the topic I would assume, but we all know what A-S-S-U-M-E means, oh you forgot? Nah, I won’t go there, ask someone you trust.
That being said that your interest is based on that what actually gets your attention; I think my tonight’s title may have fit the bill?

“Only time will tell…if it was time well spent”, “If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane.” a couple of Jimmy Buffet quotes., apparently my kindred spirit, on alternating days that is; I forgot that we were on the same wavelength, how wow, ya think?
Or perhaps all my thoughts are caused by the subliminal teachings and listenings from my teen years during the nineteen sixties ( hey wait a minute, Jimmy was there too!), so many of us Baby Boomers are…indirectly or directly a product of those times, which if you ask any of us they were the best and worst of our lives.
So many of our personas are shaped by our environment, no one would argue with any of that.

Ah memories… we all have them… did you know that when I was just sixteen years old that I was a Go-Go dancer? Is that tantalizing enough for you? Well it’s true, with a couple of bands from high school and we did it totally dressed, in mini dresses and boots, if I recall my friend and I, and it was at a couple of churches too! Wild times they were!
Oh how cute we were, her mom was the seamstress and so you have to know the mini dresses were short, but only a couple of inches above the knees but tasteful and in bright reddish Asian prints with black satin ribbon trim, rather exotic. Considering we were both blondes it was a unique look. Do you have any secrets in your closet?
I am sure you do… you devils out there!
For the younger folks who may not know what Go-Go dancers were I shall give you all a brief definition: They were started with the discotheque scene back in the early 1960’s and many were considered the exotic dancers that were scantily clad, but I have revealed our fully clothed costumes to you; and the dancers would be the decorations for the bands either dancing on either side of them or there to encourage the people to dance or for their entertainment with their own unique steps to teach the crowd. I suppose that is about as good or as close to it I can get. The actress/dancer Goldie Hawn ( Kate Hudson’s Mom) started her career as one of them at the Peppermint Lounge on route 4 in Paramus, NJ (where I was raised and lived then too) and then she later became a regular dancer/comedian on the 1960’s TV show, Laugh In.

On that ending wee bit of trivia I would like to be the first to wish you all a very happy good night and to ask you all to count those blessings and kindly share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
