You know, not that Max isn't a helluva guy, but I think it may be time to expand your circle of friends, Indigo. Just sayin'.
ReplyDeleteNicky, those are wise words. But hey, I trust the lad. And please, pass the bandages, won't you? Thanks. Roth
DeleteRemind me never to let Max talk me into helping him with one of this experiments. Ever.
ReplyDeleteA great, and very original, take on today's theme, Indigo. :)
Hey Ziva! I know, but they're usually so cool; I volunteered for this one. Life is full of surprises. And thank you, Z! =) Indigo
Delete"There was screaming." That says it all... no way am I getting in that chair of Max's.
ReplyDeleteHey Paula! Yes, it's the same with me driving a car; just ask Max. Tho he exaggerates. Roth x
DeleteI had to check my hair too; that was a wild ride!
ReplyDeleteHey Jenn! Thanks! Quickest blog entry ever! Indigo =)
DeleteHoly crap. I enjoyed both rides but they were far more relaxing in my mind.
ReplyDeleteHey Cheryl! You're made of sterner stuff than me, ma'am! But I'm very pleased you enjoyed. Indigo
DeleteYou know I think I had a dream like this once.
ReplyDeleteYou did, Dufus, and posted it before mine too.
DeleteI might be in the minority, but I think Max rules. :)
ReplyDeleteHey P.J.! You're right, he rules in several central African states, most of which he invaded by submarine. I tell ya, this man has MOVES. Indigo
DeleteWhat's screaming "authentically?" Is that different from scream inauthentically?
ReplyDeleteJust ribbin' you, Indigo.
Clever bit of writing, especially given the grind of this thing.
Hey Mike! I would never use the work "grind" to describe this. *looks about shiftily, whispers* Well, not unless I was sure Nicky couldn't hear me. Thanks for the kind words matey. Indigo
DeleteDoes Max provide the little airsick bags?
ReplyDeleteHey LaughingMom! (Is there a real name attached to that monicker? I've never spotted it). He does indeed, and can even provide vomit in them for a small extra charge. Indigo
DeleteI've been interested in that whole Tunguska event thingy since I was about 12, so based on that alone, Max rules.
ReplyDeleteHey Mariann! I tell you, we had some excellent adventures long before Bill and Ted took an interest in such things. And when his name wasn't Max, it was iDifficult (don't ask). Indigo =)
DeleteWhat an amazing description... "My tummy yawns with the effects of physics." That is exactly how I felt going down a particular water slide in Williamsburg.... that drop.... the yawn... amazing description.
ReplyDeleteHey Katherine! Thank you, I'm always surprised by the unplanned nonsense I type; I'm glad it hit the spot! Indigo
Delete"I cough, my mouth dry,and imagine my hair wild." That describes me every morning. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ride.
Hey Malisa! Heh, my pleasure ma'am. I'm currently sporting a pre-shower haystack on my head, but will wash/beat it into submission ASAP. Indigo
DeleteExcellent description. I was right there. Well almost - I didn't scream, but I probably would have had I been there. It sounds like a wild ride.
ReplyDeleteHey Linda! Too kind, ma'am, too kind. In fact, that's about the best compliment you can ever pay a writer. Of course, all my stories are true, I just write 'em down. The hard bit's been done before I ever start MS-Word. Thanks again, Indigo
DeleteSo much is being said here without your having to say it. I'm really beginning to appreciate the imagination you put into your blog entries. Reading this stuff is making me feel mundane and grounded. I mean that in a good way, somehow.
ReplyDeleteHey KZ, good to see you here, Sir. And thanks, that's a helluva nice thing to say. I was similarly inspired by your own entry, and damn well said so. If you see it, say it, right? See you again, Indigo
DeleteHahaha! You certainly can spin a fine tale Indigo, of that I am sure.
ReplyDeletePlus the screaming? Made me laugh.
Hey Kato! It's true, I scream like a cheerleader! Shame about the legs, tho; I coulda been a contender, Charlene! Heh. Roth x
