What Do You Want?

Posted by Bill

I know what you want. You want links. I get that. But when I was a boy, I wanted lots of things, not the least of which was to grow up to be either an astronaut or a professional figure skater, dueling aspirations that, come puberty, sparked a series of incredibly messy dreams about a naked Katarina Witt doing slow triple salchows on the moon. And I firmly believe that the following mornings of confused panic and gummy tween shame are responsible for my currently humbler, flickering flourescent-lit designs on middle management.

My point? You can't always get what you want. And if you have a teenage son, it's probably not a terrible idea to take a coat or two of Thompson's Water Seal to his bedsheets.

Im not so sure I want links now. Who knows what youve been doing with your hands.

And all this time we'd thought you'd finally snapped after being rejected for the Olympic ribbon twirling team for the 10th time in a row.

Hey, could you check on Ghost of a Flea? His site seems to be down. As long as you're not giving us links and all.

I have never been so concerned for you as I am now.

Or you could do like that Zach kid's parents from American Idol last night, and teach him to dress, talk and act like a woman.

Man, that shit was disturbing.

Oh, never mind. It's back working now.

How did that Witt dream work out, in light of your bedwetting habit?

Um, Bummer, bewetting isn't exactly what's being discussed.

Glad to know I wasn't the only one with that particular obsession. But I had already expended most of my lustful ice-dancer fantasies on Dorothy Hamill, Supreme Almighty Goddess of Grace and Beauty. I had SUCH a crush on her when I was 14...I think I still do.

Have you seen her lately? She's about 48 now but she looks fantastic. Alas, I'm already spoken for.
