<quoted text>Cable beach, jumping on stage, doing the Thriller dance....Not a vacation unless I tend bar and play a musical instrument. I have been successful for the last 15 years.

Oh, dancing absolutely. We (girls trip) were dancing close to the bar one night and I grabbed the arm of a girl sitting there and pulled her up with us. Turned out she was from Wisconsin and with a couple friends. I can tend bar, but don't let me near the drums. And I only THINK I can sing, so no microphones.
I've taken kids with us too. My husband does not enjoy any beach.(Good) But he will go and get into the snorkeling and fishing trips. Won't hang glide. I will.

For the most part beaches are BORING to me. Who wants to waste time baking in the sun or fishing? Not me. You do know that clear water means an oceanic desert, don't you? Sure it looks like lots of sea life, but that's nothing compared to what's up in the waters off Maine.
Paradise to me is not the Caribbean.

Look, you can't meet your maker without having eaten fried bananas and plantains.

You should come to the Ohio State Fair. Fried or deepfried EVERYTHING, including bacon.

Me, I'll pass. I don't have the adrenaline gene some of the rest of you have.

One. I have been asked why I don't wear a bikini, just not comfortable in one. Hubby has been begging me for 20 years to wear one...ain't happening.

Seriouslady, topix is not liking me responding to your posts for some reason.

My vacation philosophy...I'll never see these people again!

Not the case at all. I have a personal reason not to get drunk, and I don't go into those here.
Apparently you didn't read my previous post about all my traveling. Except for listening to the waves, I have done all that in my travels to places other than the beach. Come to think of it, I've stayed in places on the Great Lakes where the waves were about 50 feet away from our lodging, we went to sleep listening to them.
I just would rather be learning stuff than frying in the sand.

I would ask you, if you have been along the Great Lakes lately....have you noticed their drop in water levels that have been reported lately?

when at the Ohio State fair one evening this past summer..........

it was very apparent that the fat people were on stakeout; and trashy humans thick as fleas on a junkyard dog.

I see no reason for me to EVER return to the state fair.

what used to be pride of farmers on display, has turned into a flea market catering to the bottom rung of citizens in Ohio.

Especially when the country "stars" are there. We go every couple of years to eat certain fair foods, but I tend to stay away from the deep-fried stuff. Gotta keep that beach bod, ya know.

What? Are they blocking your replies?

My vacation philosophy (I could not have spelled that with out you) is 'it's a vacation...whatever you enjoy and doesn't get you arrested.' Actually I did make friends with two sisters, natives of Cable Beach, and see them every year. If I let them know I'm there.

I have never been to a state fair. Anywhere.

No. This morning, for whatever reason, my response to you would not give me the numbers to post. Everyone else copacetic, who knows?

Pathetic.

Because I think it's sad to get drunk and go play cards with strangers in a casino at 3 AM?

Well, whatever turns you on, I guess.

Bikini's are not comfortable! I have two or three, but I like the two pieces that have a sort of thank top. Much more comfortable and you can pull the top up and tan your middrift. I have, and no kidding, over 20 bathing suits. All weel worn. Except the bikinis. And I like one pieces.

So, that subject, of world importance, is settled, right?

Sometimes mine does that. I just go ahead and hit 'post comment' and it gives me a set of numbers.

I've never been in a casino in the U.S. and probably never will go to one.

Have you ever played blackjack? You everhave people you met at dinner and dancing say "Hey, come on over to the casino with us!"

Have you ever sat down with a table and played with them against the dealer, and the players change and you end up making new friends and even ask a girl you've just met to play your hand while you visit the ladies room without a thought that she might be evil?

Do you have any sense of whimsy or adventure or ever one spontaneous moment in your life? Have you ever had an unguarded moment?

I feel sorry for you.

Drinking is not a sin, Reader, drunkeness is. And gluttony is just as much of a sin. And guess what? God loves to see us dance and laugh and love other people without judgement.

You're gonna lose that finger someday, you point it at the wrong person. Quit hiding behind it.

Did that multiple times. It would give me the numbers on any other reply and/or new post with the exception of me responding to seriouslady regardless of the thread. Perplexing...

Ah-ha....Perplexing indeed. To the point of becoming a major conspiracy! Will be be outed on MSNBC tonight? If so, I'm wearing purple.
