Hey!
You're a crazy b*tch
But you f*ck so good I'm on top of it
When I dream
I'm doing you all night
Scratches all down my back to keep me right on

Alone from night to night you'll find me,
Too weak to break the chains that bind me.
I need no shackles to remind me.
I'm just a prisoner of love.

amateur. I've got other ways to make people talk...

Twerp must have went to the Jack Bauer school of how to get someone to talk with only using your pinky toe.

Um...Lynn...The goat died last week...(Poor Lynn is so upset about us losing the goat that she blocked it out of her mind..)

@lynn - I'd love to assist, but both of those are hard to come by here in the upper left corner. Not impossible, mind you. OK, off I go, questing, again!

I think I have a good idea why they're estranged.

Ah--lynn--I can get Moon Pies--when we do the grits/Stevie exchange, I'll try to remember to throw in a couple.
There's a lot to this story that doesn't make sense. I understand that she handcuffed him while he was sleeping, but I can guaran-effing-tee you, the minute that batshit crazy broad started biting me, I would be using my free arm to club the living daylights out of her. I would also wait for her to go to sleep, then drag her to ye old tool box and get Mr. Saw.

I am reminded of this from A Prairie Home Companion's recent Joke Show:
If you don't think a dog is a man's best friend, try this experiment. Put your wife and your dog in the trunk of your car and drive around for a while. When you open the trunk again, which one do you think is going to be glad to see you?
______________________
It's just the old "tough love" approach:
He won't talk to me! I've had enough!
So to make him, I'm gonna handcuff
His wrist to my own,
Then I'll have him alone.
I am practicing love that is tough.

The Sinatra lyrics were almost on the mark, but I had in mind something else - see if you can tell where these lyrics come from:
Prisoners of love
Blue skies above
Can't keep our hearts in jail
Prisoners of love
Our turtle doves
Soon coming 'round with bail!
Oh, you can lock us up
And lose the key
But hearts in love
Are always free!
Prisoners of love
Blue skies above
'Cause we're still prisoners
We're still prisoners
We're still prisoners of love

The Producers, either one, Though I much prefer the original Zero Mostel/Gene Wilder version.

I would have beat the shit out of her with the other hand and smothered her with a pillow
Posted by: cornboy | Tuesday, March 31, 2009 at 10:23 PM
cornboy--that's an interesting angle that I hadn't considered. To quote the great Sam Kinneson, "I don't condone domestic violence, but I definitely understand what turns Mr. Hand into Mr. Fist!". I'm thinking being handcuffed by a psycho might qualify for a pillow treatment. (And THEN dragging her ass to the toolbox to get the saw. Neither one of them has a brain cell between them, though, IMO.

troschne--does this mean you won't let me handcuff you then next time we get in the trunk ??
KC ---i heard that joke, cracked me up, esp with Roy Blount doing it...i love PHC show.( i have a crush on dusty of the cowboys)
lol at LGL. *

cornboy, I guess you tend to treat your women a little rough.
Posted by: kevy | Wednesday, April 01, 2009 at 06:28 AM
lynn--I have no problem with handcuffs, as long as it's agreed on mutually. If someone did it while I was asleep, in order to imprison me, then started causing physical harm, that's where I draw the line!
Posted by: troschne | Thursday, April 02, 2009 at 08:43 AM
troschne--i would never handcuff anyone that was asleep. i would never purposely hurt anyone, it is not needed
