Date Night

September 12, 2008

We live just around the corner from a very active American Legion hall. I drive by often, and always slow down a bit to read the marquis sign announcing their latest events--usually a chicken barbecue or a poker tournament.

But last night, I sped past the sign as usual and surprised myself when I slammed on the breaks and threw 'er into reverse right there on High Street.

I had to see if I read this correctly:

Yes indeed, I read that right. Tonight, in my adorable little town, there will be a dance that either features a local band called "Colon Blow," or there will be a dance that doubles as some sort of a farting contest.

What can I say? Life just keeps getting better and better.

Smart of them to discuss public safety before that blast that is Colon Blow.

Heather of the EO said...

So...you're going right?

Laura said...

Too bad we're busy. We could double.

That made me chortle out loud and scare my 4yo.

The high school students recently changed the sign outside the high school from "Blood Doner Clinic" to "Boner Clinic". I, too, slammed on the brakes and then laughed and laughed. I only regret that I didn't have my camera with me (and that someone changed it back within the hour).

LOL!
Maybe they are doing free colonoscopies.

Wow. That sounds like a "Whey" fun time. I hope you're not lax-ative about going.

Amy said...

Wow. What's the dress code for that type of occasion?

I think, perhaps, you picked the perfect town for you to live in; It already seems to be Amy-fied.

Jon said...

I am pretty sure colon blow is a band.

Saw this. Thought of you. Had to share. Have a great day.

That seriously needs to be submitted to the "Tonight Show". It would be a great monday night headline!!!

Kellie said...

Yikes! Either way, I'd stay clear of the dance!

Laura said...

I've been waiting but don't see any updates - did you find out what this was? Or am I dumb for not being able to figure out the error?

Amy said...

Laura--it seriously was the name of the band.
