Hi. I'm trying to think of another description to put here. Any ideas? I'll try again at 420.

You know, I didn't realize how funny this line was when I wrote it...

...His penis is not only twisted, the head is actually smaller than the shaft. It looks kind of like a pencil with a worn out eraser.

I just reread it and it cracked me up. I was just reporting the facts at the time. This was the first time I had spent any amount of serious time on the visual. That's not why I came back, I came back to give you the link to my friends' blog. Uh oh, now I have to go get it. Well, aren't I the supid fool. I can't go get it from here. Well, maybe I can, let me try opening another browser window...Oh! That worked. Well, what do you know. OK, here it is:

When I went to the other window to access this link, I found this email from Guy:

You could always flu... er... never mind. ;-)

Now, I couldn't figure out what he was talking about and I felt silly that I couldn't. Surely Guy wouldn't be so cryptic. And, surely he didn't mispell a 3 letter PORTION of a word so what could he have meant? I thought and I thought and I couldn't imagine what he was talking about. I decided to get out Meg's Official Dictionary, my personal copy of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate, the tenth edition. I looked up words beinning with flu.

Certainly he didn't mean to flush. That was last month. My toilets have been acting pretty well as of late. But then again, it hasn't rained since then either. But certainly he didn't mean to flush. If he was going to tell me to flush something, he would have told me that last month.

He couldn't have meant fluster, I am already flustered. Pretty much everyone around me is as well. I have flustered just about everybody I have come in contact with. I can fully see that and appreciate it. But there is nothing I can do about it. As Popeye would say, "I yam what I yam."

Could he mean flute? I doubt it, even though it can be used as a verb as in, "He fluted up and down the streets dressed in a pink tu-tu and a blue halter top." But, no, Guy would have no reason to think that I could flute. I have never mentioned a flute.

He couldn't have meant flutterboard or flutter sleeve, none of them make a lick of sense. And, like fluvial, fluviatile, fluxgate and fluxion, they have no verb form so I couldn't actually DO them. So he couldn't have meant that. And with flutter kick, he pretty much has no reason to tell me to go and flutter kick. At least not without MENTIONING swimming. He has no reason to think I know what flutter kicking is.

Which leaves me with flutter and flux. Flux means "to cause to become fluid." In my entire life, I have never caused a soul to become fluid. So, I have decided that he must have meant to flutter and specifically, "to move with quick wavering or flapping motions" or "to vibrate in irregular spasms."

So, Guy, which was it?
