Amazing Characters

My life would be really boring were it not for the interesting characters I'm blessed to know. You've met my immediate family and my notoriously quirky and opinionated mother.

What you don't know yet is that I have two mothers-in-law. TWO. And fortunately, both are fabulous.

Today one is worthy of mention because I just opened an email from her that contained a video of naked dancing men. I mean, if that's not hip I don't know what is.

I didn't embed the video as a courtesy to those at work, but if you're not at work it's definitely worth watching. Even if you're a guy. Because if you're a guy you might pick up a few tips. (No pun intended.)

  1. I am far, far too frightened to risk clicking that link. Years of unfortunate conditioning by the Internet have instilled in me a great and terrible hesitation to click unknown links, out of concern that something too horrible for words is waiting on the other side to sear my retina and steal my soul.

    Naked Swedish men and the dance of the crispbread?!
    No good can come of this.

  2. Naken Swedish Men is a real attention grabber. The Crispbread was just a bonus.

  3. Ignoring the helpful advice from myself to myself, I clicked the link.

    And I'll admit, it was funny and only moderately disturbing. I may never look at crackers the same way again.

    In other news, Wendy - I've quietly enabled comments on my blog. If this turns out to be a poor decision, I have no one to blame for my misery and suffering except you. I hope you can live with the (potential) guilt! :)

  6. LOL The premise of this reminds me of Jimmy Buffet's "Fruitcakes", one of my favorite songs. "We need more fruitcakes in this world and less bakers!"

  38. That is just too funny. So glad I found your blog. I got the link from Tracie's blog.

    I'm originally from Arkansas, unfortunately living in Alabama for now. I say "for now." We've been here 20 years. Retirement is getting closer, however, and I do hope to get back home.
