Question:
Have you ever considered re-enacting the Tom Cruise move from Risky Business?
Goofball Answer:
Tree Leaf,
This would depend on the "move" to which you refer. There were several classic moves in that movie.
Are you asking if I've ever considered driving my Dad's Porsche into Lake Michigan? If so, no. Neither my Dad nor I are Porsche guys. We're both of the opinion Porches are ugly and compensatory. But I did crash my Mom's GMC Jimmy once.
But perhaps you're wondering if I've ever thought of turning my parents' house into a bordello. If so, I'm afraid I'm going to have to say "no" again. I don't have the mad phat skills necessary to convince a bunch of women to do such things and pay me for it. It's hard enough to get one woman's attention...
And if I've struck out on the first two moves, then I'm inclined to think you're talking about Tom's classic boxers 'n' socks slide across the living room whilst singing Bob Seger. And to this I can offer a resounding "yes". In fact, the place I'm renting right now is perfect for it. There isn't a shred of carpeting in the whole place. So I can slide across the hardwood or the tile. And I'm just about always singing. So in any given week I probably perform this slide seven times. But to be completely honest, my place is pretty window-heavy, so I'm not always sliding about in my skivvies. I save that for the 3rd Sunday morning of every month.
