Five fun facts about your life

Could also be Jack or Steven Ford. Sorry didn't see your previous post.

 

I, too, am curious about this?
Perhaps I misunderstand the nature of a swinger party, having never been to one.
I have always assumed that the swingers attend the party for the openly acknowledged purpose of swinging, and that all other party-related activities were secondary or complementary to the swinging.
Under those circumstances, it seems strange for a non-swinger to attend.
However, if a swinger party is actually just a party at which some people choose to swing, meaning the normal focus of the party is the party itself and the swinging is an adjunct result, then I guess I understand.

Please clarify.

 

Maybe he was just there to masturbate.

 

Don't even have to leave the house for that.

 

I believe Buck typed that with one hand waiting for the answer.

 

Hmm...
1) I've stood on a corner in Winslow, Arizona
2) I served my LDS mission with a Super Bowl offensive coordinator and the brother-in-law of an NBA legend
3) I've had personal correspondence from both Captain Kirk and Commander Adama
4) I sat in the captain's chair of the Starship Voyager and the Deep Space 9 commander's office
And your vote for the fifth
X) I've covered arena/indoor football games in all four continental US time zones AND Alaska
X) I've seen Bethune-Cookman beat Florida in two different sports
X) Sylvester Stallone was introduced to ME at the Florida Governor's Mansion

 

What were you on mop up duty?

 

Or fluffer.

 

Ain't this fun?!

1. I won the school science fair in 6th grade recreating an experiment I read about in Disney Adventure magazine, but was foiled at county because I referred to the infrared light in a TV remote as a "laser beam" throughout my project. The legit judges weren't as impressed as those at my elementary school.

2. The only times I've kissed another man were during varsity basketball practice. As punishment for missing free throws during practice, my coach required the shooter to kiss a teammate. Yeah, pretty fucked up, in hindsight.

3. I coached a state champion boys cross country team (and the individual champion), earning the classification coach of the year award. The plaque included a typo in the spelling of my last name. The corrected plate I was sent spelled my first name wrong.

4. I was voted "Most Likely to Become a Millionaire" for my high school's Class of 2001. Though my current salary as a middle management marketer in the technology sector is twice what I ever made as a HS teacher/coach -- and more than 3x what I earned as a journalist -- seven figures doesn't appear to be in the cards.

5. I once won my team a trivia night tiebreaker via dance contest. Winner was decided by crowd applause. I defeated an endowed female. At Hooters. Chaminade vs. Virginia, that one.

 

It was a Christmas party, but it was a swingers party as well. I just happened to know the couple hosting it, so my buddy invited me just to have a few beers after I got done with work. His party, his rules, I guess. Apparently, being a single guy at a swinger party is a rare occurrence that is usually frowned upon by the majority, but since I was there to drink and not partake, I was cool. (Single females, though, are more than welcome — actually they called 'unicorns' in "the lifestyle" and are very sought after.)
Most of the "fun" happens either in bedrooms or in a pre-set orgy room. For this house, that was a rec room in the basement. I never went down there, so I can't tell you the layout of the room, but I do know my buddy asked if we could borrow a blow-up mattress and my wife said no fucking way! LOL
So I had a desk shift that night and got done around 11/11:30 and headed over. First thing I see when I walk in? A guy sitting on the couch getting a BJ. I headed to the kitchen to grab a drink and BS with my buddy. He introduced me to a few people, one couple...their son played college football for a BCS team. Another, it was their first time swinging and were just getting a feel for the atmosphere.
Me and another guy talked hockey for a while...so it was all very normal. Until the girls all decided to line up according to boob size, with no tops on. That's when I knew I wasn't in Kansas anymore.
I think after that, the 'swinger party' really started and a bunch of people headed downstairs. I was tempted just to go down to see what all was going on, but just finished up my drink and left after that.
For the majority, it was a good-looking crowd of people. Usually, people think of swinger parties as old naked people grinding on each other the second you walk in the door or some episode of Real Sex.
But it was basically just a party of 30/40-something adults drinking and playing game and bullshitting. It just happens that these parties don't end until everyone has had their fill of sex as well. LOL I know my buddy says sometimes these parties don't really get kicked into high gear until after midnight and go until dawn, and hell...I'm too tired for that shit. haha

 

I'm sorry, but I really could not help but laugh at that one.

I don't know about fun facts, exactly, but I'll do my best to contribute, relatively quiet and tame though my life has been.

1). I was born three months prematurely, nearly dying on my only uncle's wedding day. My life was spared because our family doctor knew when to call in someone more knowledgeable than himself. He asked a fellow doctor, a neo-natal specialist, to fly in to New York City on his day off especially to see me, and he did it, winding up changing every medication I was on at the time, thus starting a life-saving turnaround for me, although I still spent all of the first nearly three months of my life the hospital, and much of my first year there, as well. I still have residual hearing loss, nearly clubbed feet and a pigeon-toed walk, poor balance, and, most critically as I age, underdeveloped lungs that have all been thought to be long-standing vestiges of being born too soon.

2). I won my elementary school spelling bee, beating out my best friend (of 40 years now) along the way. Also in those same formative years, I lived up the street from the parents of one of Disney's biggest-ever child/teen stars from back in the day -- Kurt Russell.

3). I was among the first patients to undergo radial keratotomy -- the precursor to LASIK -- in the early 1980s, soon after it become something more than just an experimental procedure for the treatment of near-sightedness. I went from 20-400 vision to 20-20 eyesight virtually overnight, and held that level of acuity for the 20-25 years that was suggested would be the case after the surgery.

4). I have never eaten a fried egg in my life. Eggs are all scrambled, all the time, for me. I just cannot stomach the look, texture and, I don't think, the taste of the wet/soppy yolk and soft/soggy white of fried eggs. In the same vein, but at a different end of the spectrum, I have never smoked anything -- not a cigarette nor anything else -- in my life.

5). I've driven, or been driven, across the country six times, and I love to travel, but I have never been to Las Vegas. Maybe that's part of why I was able to pay off my home last month -- nearly four years early. Yeah, I'm feeling like celebrating that a little bit. Maybe with a trip to Vegas.

 

1. I have toured a special-ops training facility (you know in spy movies where they have the training facility where the main characters will do a walk-and-talk past a bunch of weapons tests, martial arts training and people taking target practice? Yeah, those are real). Also on the tour, someone who was a cabinet secretary at the time. I have also toured nuclear sub.

2. I once watched a Tyson pay-per-view with members of the US Olympic boxing team. One of the guys in the room had fought one of the undercard fighters a few years earlier.

3. Back in college, I had a few friends who were not heavy drinkers, so instead of the twice-annual bar crawl, they came up with the idea of doing a burger crawl, hitting every fast food place in town and finishing it off with a burger at an Applebees/ TGI Fridays type place. I highly recommend you NEVER do this.

4. I have seen every Oscar winner for best picture, from Wings to Moonlight. One year, a friend and I saw all of the nominees over the course of a long weekend. All nine of them.

5. An athlete I covered when she was in high school became a professional model. When you do a google image search of her name, you get a bunch of her modelling photos (nothing salacious, sorry pervs) and a picture I took of her winning the 400 in a track meet.
