Ben and Elaine's thoughts on the bus


"Whew, dodged that bullet," thought Elaine as the bus pulled away from the bus stop.  "Carl was handsome but I'm glad I didn't go down the aisle with a frat boy lawyer like mom.  It was hilarious with everyone cursing and Ben pulling us out of there.  Especially when Ben jammed the cross in the door."

"That was great," thought Ben.  "I can't believe I body-checked Carl like that.  It was fun swinging the cross about like Excalibur.  Funny trapping everyone in the church with a cross.  Good thing I had change for the bus."

"I can't wait to get out of this damn dress, it's too small," thought Elaine, "I didn't want to get married but my parents rushed us down here.  I want to go back to Berkeley and finish the semester.  'Not gonna drop out like mom.  But dang, I have an exam Monday and I didn't bring my books or notes.  Maybe Ben can drive us back.  Wait, where is his convertible?"

"Where the hell is this bus going?" wondered Ben, "I suppose we should get off and come back to get my car.  But damn, gotta find a gas station that will loan a can of gas.  How much cash do I have?"

"In a way, I'm glad I won't have to have sex with Carl anymore," mused Elaine to herself.  "I hated having sex in his Ford.  And the foreplay was usually just 'Wanna do it?'  How will sex with Ben be?  My roommate told me her boyfriend would play with her clitoris with his tongue and she said it was amazing.  I wonder if Ben will.  Holy Shit!  I could ask my mom!"

"Elaine's sorta hot.  I'm looking forward to having sex with her," Ben thought, "Mrs. Robinson was right, I was a virgin before the affair.  It'll be fun to have sex with someone my age.  I wonder if she's as good at blow jobs as her mother?  Do mothers teach their daughters that?"

"We haven't said a word since we got on the bus," thought Elaine, "but what do you say after you run out of a wedding and catch a city bus?"  She looked over at Ben who was about to say something.  "Maybe he'll say he's wanted to spend his life with me since we were kids."

"Elaine, we need to get off the bus and find a gas station to get some gas for my car.  I ran out of gas about half a mile from the church."

"Ok," said Elaine while she thought, "Well, that was really romantic.  But I gotta ask him something that's been bugging me for a while."

"Ben, do you sometimes hear Simon and Garfunkel songs in your head?"

"Oh, God, all the time!" said Ben.

Coda, back at the church.

"Dammit, Elaine left with that bastard Ben," fumed Mrs. Robinson.  "He's just as boring as his parents.  Carl is much more handsome than him or my ex-husband.  She'd never get bored like I did if she had a real man like him."

Carl stood thinking,  "I hate to admit it, but I'm glad I didn't have to marry Elaine, even though we would make a good team.  To be honest, she was sorta dull.   Her mom is pretty hot for her age, the gay divorcee, as the guys in the house would say.  I wonder if she'd like to fool around with a young guy like me?"

My favorite places in DC that are no more

Image
First off, a proud admission.   I was BORN in Washington DC.  I have lived half my life in DC, though that includes all of the last 17 years.  It has of course changed a lot since a) I was born and b) since I moved back in 1996.  There are many places that, as I look back, made my life in DC.  Some are still around.  Many are no more.  After reviewing the places below, I realized most are bookstores, movie theaters, and pizza places, plus some other bars and restaurants.  If those ain't your thing, perhaps find some other idle reading.  Here I will give homage to places that were precious to me that are no more.  Those that died recently include pictures I found on the web. My biggies - Some places when they disappeared left big holes in my life, only to be filled with liquor and second rate pizza. Childe Harold   My first legal drink in DC was at Childe Harold.  I spent evenings after working at Olsson's sitting at the bar with a burger and some beer.  I saw World Cu

MPC Miniature Military Vehicles: 1960s toys

Image
The 1960s was the golden age of plastic toys.  It was the first full decade of mass produced plastic toys of a wide variety.  Yes, toys are still overwhelmingly made of plastic, but if you look through toy stores, there is a tendency to have nodes of toy lines, Lego, Disney, Fischer Price, Thomas Trains, etc, frequently tied in with movies and television.  Back in the 60s shelves were awash with inexpensive, royalty-free toys of different kinds even if they were manufactured by a couple companies.  Toy vehicles were a favorite for boys, and, before the growing awareness of the Vietnam War reduced their popularity, tanks and other military vehicles were a favorite subject.  A particular favorite toy set of mine was, and still is, the Miniature Military Vehicles produced by MPC.  They came in a set of 40 different items, each vehicle about an inch long, representing the armies of the US, Germany, UK, USSR, and France.  Most were a single molded shape, though half of the vehicles had a

Sharing my name

I have an identity problem.  I share my name with someone else.  Yes, almost everyone shares his or her name with someone somewhere.  But I share my name with the lead singer/guitarist of a hair band, RATT, popular in the 80s.  Thanks to him I am utterly ungoogleable, as my now wife discovered when we met 10 years ago.  Dating due diligence bore no fruit when she tried to find out whether I had been arrested for rape, murder, or outstanding parking tickets thanks to the deluge of fan-sites, forums, and photo galleries of THE Stephen Pearcy.  My meager accomplishments are swamped on the internet by his music and libertine lifestyle.  It has taken time, but I have finally accepted this. I first learned of his existence when I was a teacher in the late 80s.  Students would put up drawings on my classroom door of a rat with a beard, glasses, and floppy hat that were my trademarks alongside articles about the band.  In the early 90s I would occasionally find reviews of his records in free
