Re. Inappropriate LanguageLast month I jokingly referred to my wife's mother as "Boom-Boom." I dunno ... it just came to me like that when she called one day last month. The phone rings, her last name displayed on the call display, and ... "Honey, it's for you; it's Boom-Boom" ... LOL
Anyway, the "Boom-Boom" expression, to me anyway, kinda rhymes with her French last name---not to mention that it matches her tough, forceful character. Even my wife found it amusing and thought her mother would, too, when she greeted her mother on the phone with a "Hi, Boom-Boom."
Not so. The woman was seriously offended. "Who is 'Boom-Boom?'" "Why did you call me that?" ... and so on. She took it as an insult to her big boobs, apparently. And you know what? It's been a month ... and she is still upset. She has basically stopped calling and visiting. I swear, boys, not only did I not mean it as an insult, but her boobs---yes, they're really, really big ... a la Dolly Parton if not bigger ... and the sight of her cleavage when she wears low-cut tops can make any man's knees buckle---were, and always have been, the last thing on my mind. Moreover, I am not, nor have I ever been, a big boob fan.
Now, even though I have totally refrained from using offensive or inappropriate language, and also never in any way intended my remark to be offensive, my wife expects me to personally apologize to her mother when she finally does come around to visiting. Ok, fine, I'll apologize. But here's the funny thing. With all this big boob talk, I'll be damned if I'll be able to keep from staring at her boobs if she does indeed happens to wear one of those low-cut tops of hers ;-)
So, how is our SLX doing? I'm too chicken to check for myself. The banksters, like clockwork, started their silver assault at 12:30. Silver held up reasonably well up to the COMEX close. It's only now that it's getting pounded a bit---now that market participation in the access market is very thin.
Btw, you boys know if Blythe Masters has big boobs? ;-)
