So happy to hear that your wrist is feeling better. Seems Dr Google may have been correct. It was nice to get an assist from Barefoot keeping NOTHING going. Now we need a story from Tom and a report from Nucky and a check in from K

How about a nothing story? I repeat myself quite a bit mostly because my memory is slipping. Did I tell the story about my sister, her grand daughter and Mary Poppins?

How weird is that? I just got back from a movie---and was writing, suggesting a nothing story as you were writing a request.

Apparently NOTHING is telepathic.

I incyst that you don’t gang up lions on the bad wrist. All that medical stuff am confusing to a city boy?

Reminds me of when Mrs Barefoot had NOTHING but Kneemonia.

Actually I was thinking, much like EF Hutton, when you speak everyone listens (per post #6410). You're NOTHING but in command here today.......

I think I told the Marty Poppins nothing story so I'll try a new one.
My parents bought a travel trailer while I was in college sophomore year and spring break was coming up. I suggested to a friend that we take it to Provincetown over Spring break. I read it was a hippy town and seemed like we could have some adventures. Back then everyone hitch hiked and we picked up a girl on the way, pretty close to P-Town. We asked her for a bar we could hit and she said we had to go to Piggy's. I asked, why Piggy's? and she gave me a zodiac answer about the owner being a Sagittarius and we were in the cusp of the third moon. We pretended we knew exactly what she was talking about. I remember getting close to P Town and seeing a sign at the fork that read Provincetown---either way. I didn't realize the sign was more then a road sign. So our first night we get to Piggy's and head to the bar, order 2 beers and check out the dance floor looking for girls. Then I noticed that some boys are dancing with girls just like home, some girls are dancing with girls just like home but some boys are dancing with boys, not like home. Apparently I must have noticed 2 boys dancing and spent a moment too long trying to figure this out. When the next song starts one of the boys comes over and asks me if I want to dance. I said "NO" in a voice I never had before or since. I sounded like Mr. Ed saying "No--ooo-oooo" in three octaves. The guy said, that's cool, no problem and left me completely off my game which was pretty flimsy to begin with. I think Steve and I were the only 2 guys that went to P Town looking for Ft. Lauderdale , Girls Gone Wild action and ended up looking at antique stores and Army Navy shops.

This reminds me of the days before the ability to Google search everything. Our adventures often included wading into uncharted territories knowing absolutely NOTHING and encountering more than a few surprises along the way.

Lesson learned here, not all resort towns are alike.
