My Random Thought

Alright, this has nothing to do with anything, but while I'm posting....

If I were writing a short story, I would totally have it that Lakewood Yid and reasonablynuts of the comment thread to this post turn out to be married, both of them unaware that the other has ever blogged. Just saying.

Um...what Pina Colada song? Sorry, I'm totally not up on pop culture.

Miri said...

more like the recent Brad Pitt/Angelina Jolie movie, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, actually....

Well...can I still pretend that it's original? And it would be so much fun

BTW, Lakewood Yid is probably a 75 year old, overweight, Italian woman posessed by a dybbuk.

The lyrics to the Pina Colada songs follow:

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long.
Like a worn-out recording, of a favorite song.
So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed.
And in the personals column, there was this letter I read:

"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
I'm the lady you've looked for, write to me, and escape."

I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean.
But me and my old lady, had fallen into the same old dull routine.
So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad.
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half-bad.

"Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne.
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape.
At a bar called O'Malley's, where we'll plan our escape."

So I waited with high hopes, then she walked in the place.
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face.
It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "Oh, it's you."
And we laughed for a moment, and I said, "I never knew"..

"That you liked Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
You're the love that I've looked for, come with me, and escape."

"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain.
If you're not into yoga, if you have half-a-brain.
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape.
You're the love that I've looked for, come with me, and escape."

That's so disturbing! I mean if I discovered that my spouse was attempting to cheat on me via the personals, I don't think that the reaction would be mutual laughter and romance. There would be blood.

Lakewood Yid,

I believe in things when I am presented with incontrovertible proof :)

Looking Forward said...

it would be funny.

(reasonably nuts on another comment thread told me something amounting to i'm smart so that's why i'll be my childrens mother...)

shes kinda got the same kind of preset notions in her head don't you think?

and tell us lakewood yid, would you tell her you've been blogging? why would she tell you? and besides they do have internet cafes...

and the pina colada song is disturbing.

Miri said...

there are internet cafes everywhere; I'm sure there's one at a reasonable distance rom Lakewood. but they also have the interenet in libraries....

anonym00kie said...

i like that song!
truth is everytime i 'meet' someone new on line im always worried its going to be my brother, my boss, a old friend ive grown to dislike.. or anyone else i dont want to be talking to :)
i have a question though, do some poeple really not tell their spouses about their internet use?
creepy..

Miri said...

but isn't New York only an hour's drive away?
