The Olympics over, Time for me to break a record, I don't smell of clover...
Breaking the Record… Trying to break the record am I, The most consecutive days without a shower, oh my, Stink I must do, but not to me, Rufuz or you, You cannot smell me thru the computer, Be happy that is the case, or of me you would rue… Soap I have, more than enough, Shampoo too, but I want to be rough, My hair a shambles, everything does stink, Just don’t feel like standing in the shower, Perhaps I can just take a bath in the sink…? Rufuz does not seem to mind, no visitors do I have, The same clothes I do wear, under my arms I do wear a salve, When I start to smell myself, then I guess it will be time, To clean myself, taking a shower, using by then quite a bit of lime, Till then I am quite happy with smelling like slime… © ed ~ 8/30/04

Sigh... you really must stop beating around the bush and just speak plainly! LOL. This made me grin really big... perhaps it's just gratitude that I CAN'T (as you point out) smell through the computer. Ah, hell, Eddie M... if it's just you two guys, why be fancy?! Go for it! (em.. ick?) hehe... katy xox.

I am truly envious now, my friend. The Guinness Record is 97 days. I was in training last spring; I knew I could break it. Unfortunately, the Little Woman broke my goal, and my heart, and my competitive spirit after only 12 days - we had to go on a stinking social engagement.

You have a much better chance with only Rufuz around, and I will be rooting for you!!!!!
