Upper West Side Story: There’s gonna be a rumble tonight…
Originally published in “Crusty Pie” on 02/26/15 and “Bonnywood Manor” on 01/28/16. No changes made because, well, why mess with that, although it’s a little sad that this footnote is going to be longer than the whole bit. I have a hankering to post a bunch of these little bits over the weekend, just because, but since it IS the weekend, things may not come to fruition. I could be very dedicated and forthright, or I could spend the whole time doing nothing of any worth. The wheel is spinning…

Well, SOMETHING needs to be battened down, and I’m not ruling out my access to the Internet…

These things just happen when men wear short pants…

You don’t want to mess with these guys. I feel that the dude with the long trousers is letting his mates down. They should all be wearing those golf trousers.

And Long-Pants seems to be the most conflicted about these developments, so he’ll probably go home and write dark poetry about life choices…

Man, they really do look quite serious, which is pretty funny.
A quote to supplement your footnote: “Some days, I can conquer the world. Other days, it takes me three hours to convince myself to shower.” 😉

And on even other days, you can’t afford to pay the water bill so the shower doesn’t work and you end up being late for the World Conquest planning session at the local VFW. You win, you lose…

If I was wearing clothes like that I’d want to have a fight too – just to improve my fashion look.

We all choose our battles for various reasons. Lately, I’ve been angered by the wasted toothpaste that I can’t get out of the tube…

Yes, I think it’s designed to do that on purpose – maybe anger produces saliva which helps to keep your mouth cleaner??????!!!

The little guy on the left looks less than comfortable with the upcoming ruckus. Do we think he has chosen the wrong undies and is finding his freedom compromised?

Very valid interpretation of developing events. Me, I’m thinking he just realized how excited he is about the prospect of the post-battle shower at the country club, where things swing freely, and he’s a bit conflicted…
