WARNING!!!

[Rossvegas]

My name is Ross and I am a Canadian. I haven't seen the Sun for a very long time, and certainly not to the extent that i could shed a layer or two of clothes and enjoy it.

In the upcoming days and weeks, you will be exposed to bright white flesh devoid of any tan lines or pigment. While alarming at first, I assure you that you are not in any danger, nor is this condition contagious.

Most importantly, DO NOT stare directly at the flesh - permanent harm could result. If you absolutely must stare, please follow these precautions:

1. Wear protective eyewear at all times. Polarized is best, but any lens that blocks out the pasty whiteness will do just fine.

2. If you see the white turning to red, do not be alarmed. It's just Gawd's way of letting you know that you should turn your head and immediately avert your eyes. And remember: redliness is next to Gawdliness.

3. Please don't laugh or point. It's rude, and it hurts.

4. If you must laugh and point, please ensure that your other hand is free to present me with the beer I'll require to cool down the burns on my back. It's only fair.

Thank you for your attention, and I now return you to your regularly scheduled programming.

[FestNut]

ROTFLMAO! Reminds me of a group of guys from up Nawth that we saw last year, applying sunscreen to each other. One wrote something not nice across the back of the another as a finishing touch and when we saw them a few hours later, he had the equivalent of a temporary tatoo!

Brings new meaning to the phrase, "watch your back."

Enjoy our warm sunshine!

Bon Fete!

[bluedog]

lol! I'll know how to spot you & will bring you some sunscreen:) ... the southern sun can be brutal to your virgin skin!

bwahahaha!!! You're such a freak Ross! ;) :)

[bluesgirl]

Ross,

Jergens and Hawaiian Tropic have a product that will tan you naturally and gradually. It takes about a week or applying it everyday, but your skin will be so soft and smooth that you will have to chase the wimmin folk away. I recommend trying it out. At least you can use it to spare the rest of us from looking at pasty white skin.

[NYMAMA]

TFF!

[VWGal]

I'm putting foil inside my sunglasses so we can drink at Liuzza's on the first day of fest without incurring third-degree burns. Although I am almost as white dammit! :o

OMG - you are a riot. This is one of the funniest things i've ever seen. I think we are related. I too am of your kind - I am either whiter than the sun or redder than a creole tomato.

[Chicago Fest Fan]

In Chicago we have gone 172 days since we last had a 70 degree day. I think today it finally crept past 70. Thats 6 month below 70.

It been a rough winter.

[bluesbaby]

Ross you are such a nut! LOL
BTW, I second that thought about the Jergins. Its great!

I put it on my legs every day. Without it, I'd be whiter than Ross. :eek:

CF Fan, I hear ya! We in Bawstahn we have had very little sun and warmth together....if we get sun or warmth they are usually paired with cold and r*#n respectively...I am doing my best to get a base, went to the mtns last week and took some kids toboggoning, good sun and not too cold

[Carolina Beadhead]

Ahem...Nobody is whiter than Ross. :>)

I beg to differ.

Showdown at Liuzza's???

:D

[Rossvegas]

Just as a side note, please don't confuse Corona with the rest of us Canajuns. Although her passport might SAY that she's Canajun, she's spent more time in New Orleans and the Virgin Islands in the past year than some of their residents, so it's perfectly okay to stare at her....

I know I will. :>)

(Love ya Lis!)

[Rossvegas]

Oh, it's ON baby! Perhaps we Notherners can harness the power and energy of our whiteness and use our powers for good (never for evil)?

[mdfest]

Ross probably has a tube of Jergens

[Exitman]

My wife once told me as we were snorkeling in Key West that I wasn't white, I was iridescent. Don't know what a tan is.

[mightyradgumbo]

Is that one a Father Brother, too? :)

No LOL He be an accountant..only room for one priest in the family, the rest of us are taking the down escalator heh heh

[Mexi]

Ah, from your lips to Gawd's ears, Belle! Nothing worse than getting burned, especially on those rarely exposed bits. (I'm talking armpits, the tops of feet, shoulder blades, etc. The other parts get lots of exposure!)

Looking forward to seeing you too!

[mamaroux]

Oh gawd... I just checked this before I went to bluejays.com! What does that mean???? I have only had two crowns... well maybe three... i'm in fest training... I need to go check the score!

I am a cheater after sun poisoning two years ago on the insides?? of my forearms? though I had sunscreened ....I prefest bake in the local nukearama..aka tanning salon ...know my skin should always be protected preachin grandmother who had the most gorgeous complection at 85 is rollin in her grave!!

I've found Coppertone Sport suncreen to be a life saver! Put it on before I leave for the fairgrounds and it works all day. I've used it since '02 and not a single burn in all those days on the grounds.

But you do have to remember to put it on the tops of your feet, etc. :)

http://www.coppertone.com/includes/images/products/items/m_sp_50lotion.jpg

[Rossvegas]

Damn, no wonder you're so white! The only thing more protective would be a thin layer of plaster of Paris!

I actually use a 30 spf Coppertone for kids because I love the smell. It smells like coconuts, and now all of my fave Jazzfest shirts have that smell, even after hundreds if washings. Everytime I put them on I get this Pavlovian reaction...a nice Jazzfest glow all over again! :>)

That's one of the problems with solo festing: making sure you're covered all over in lotion. I usually use a spray bottle type, but if that damned Halle would just agree to leave the baby with the nanny for the week, I wouldn't have that problem...

[Belle]

LOL Yep. I'm not taking any chances with a miserable sunburn during fest. Considering I can get burned from opening the refrigerator door I'll take all the help I can get. :D

Both my daughters are very pale -- I sent them Ross' warning. They loved it and I suspect it will soon show up on their facebook pages.

[Rossvegas]

That sounds like a sympathy pick up line.;)

Nah, I don't usually pull out the sympathy pickup lines until 7 or 8 days into the Fest. Still, it's much better than the begging and crying that normally kicks in on day 10... :>)

[mamaroux]

No LOL He be an accountant..only room for one priest in the family, the rest of us are taking the down escalator heh heh

I bet PB spends a LOT of time praying for the rest of ya!

[Maggalicious]

Hey Ross...I feel for you northerners. I can't escape sun down here in Florida. Been so busy haven't had time to post. Finally done with work and now packing and departing on Friday. Aiyeee!!!

[mamaroux]

LOL Yep. I'm not taking any chances with a miserable sunburn during fest. Considering I can get burned from opening the refrigerator door I'll take all the help I can get. :D

Clinique makes a great 50 spf creme too... I use it as does Abbie. They also make a line of spf for the face and a stick for the lips/eyes, etc. Really great stuff. I can't tan... to hell with the Italian and Native American blood... I think I ended up with all the Dutch coloring... my dad on the other hand, always looks tan with all that native blood.... sigh... all I got was his nose.

[KeyWest Bruce]

I'll be arriving looking pretty pale considering where my home is (Key West)! But....I have to work here....so I'm inside 8 hours a day, and on weekends, I just chill and do nothing...much needed rest, but I'm inside a lot. However, I get my tan in New Orleans....and fast! Outside for both weekends of fest....and on the other days I walk a lot all around the Quarter and elsewhere. I should be looking like a lobster in no time. I do have one more weekend before I leave....so I might arrive with a Florida tan after all. Sun is strong this far south....and 45 minutes will give you some nice color. Sunscreen is a necessity at fest and if you do a lot of walking in N.O.......newbies, put it on your list for sure.:D Even Key West is experiencing a late season cold front....delightful today....low humidity, crisp and cool. After this, there's not a prayer for any cool weather till well into November.

[Lostcajun]

Ross Rocks, but I will take your advice!!

[mightyradgumbo]

I bet PB spends a LOT of time praying for the rest of ya!

Sometimes I think it is the other way around lol Really as long as my mom and nana are up there we can get in...as we joked when my dad passed away "mom is at the front keeping St Peter occupied while Nana is propping the back gate open for Dad to go in" I am sure they will do the same for us, if my Dad didn't get the whole lot of em kicked out :D

[mamaroux]

Can't wait to give ya a hug, bro!

[stlbarb]

I love you. If you will marry me, we can register for a tanning bed.

[Zydekitten]

Thanks for the warning, Ross! As a fellow albino, I appreciate and respect your dilemna . . . my suggestion is to avoid that Sparks stuff, as it can turn your mouth bright orange and that in combination with the glowing white skin could sear your image on innocent retinas. ;) :D

[Corona]

ROFLMAO ... see, this is why I lub ya, baby! You be one of my most favourite (note spelling) Canajuns!

I think I saw that once, but then again, it might have been something I ate. :rolleyes:

But seriously,... OK, no. No way I'm being serious about this. ;)

Still: won't one of yall do this so that WE can enjoy it? You know, take one for the threadhead team? :D

OK, OK. I'm just axin' over here... :cool:

Do they do same sex marriage in St. Louis? :D

[bluesbaby]

Ha, ha! Another Threadhead match?? LOL!

I use that Jergins Natural Glow stuff. It's great. The only thing I have to remember is that I still need sunscreen, even tho I LOOK tan. Got my packing list about half done. SPF 35 is in there!

[Muffaletta Diver]

Be careful when you use this Jergen's Tanning lotion stuff Ross...you may end up with pieces parts becoming tan that probably should not be if you reach for the wrong lotion bottle in the heat of the moment.

I've heard of Farmer's tan...I wonder what this kind of tan would be called? Wanker Tan? Spanker Tan? The rest of you...please...offer up some suggestions, maybe we can get it added to the Urban Dictionary.

I wanted to warn him of the same thing, but then again, I thought it might be an interesting "Show & Tell" at a meet up. :eek:

[Muffaletta Diver]

And no, before anyone asks, I do NOT know this from first "hand" experience.

[bluesbaby]

Ohhh. I was just gonna!

[Muffaletta Diver]

You are a naughty girl, but at least you don't try to hide it. I can appreciate that. I don't hide my naughty light under a basket very well either.

[bluesbaby]

BTW, when you use this stuff.....I highly recommend using wet naps to wipe off the lotion from the palms of your hands and whatever other body parts **blush*** you don't want to be tanned. Then you gotta stand around for a few minutes nekked to let it dry before putting on clothes, b/c it will stain clothing if you're not dry yet when you get dressed.

i use that stuff, but i hate the 'tan' smell you have to smell all day at the office!

[Rossvegas]

Listen, I don't want to be too forward, but if you need ANY help with the wetnap portion of the process, I'm willing to step up and volunteer. No thanks are necessary - that's just the kind of guy I am.

[Rossvegas]

Forcing myself to think of baseball...baseball...baseball...baseball...baseba ll...

Yeah, I tried that too....it ain't working.

[Muffaletta Diver]

For some reason I am thinking of my old dog Stains. That dog was so stubborn...he didn't listen very well. I'd have to stand out on the porch and yell "Come, Stains!" for hours until he came home.

I'm not naughty. I'm just drawn that way. ;)

Yep. No one knows its not a real tan. (another hint: dont forget to wet-nap those cuticles and under the fingernails, too)

[Rossvegas]

Thanks for the tanning tips ladies, but I think I'm just gonna kick it Old Skool. Even after a week of NOLA sun, the darkest I get is a nice beige...you can't fight the genes!

[Muffaletta Diver]

Good man, Ross. You have just confirmed my old skool suspicion about you. I hope we get to meet...I think we could do some damage (the all in crazy, good fun kind).

[Rossvegas]

Yes, I'm very suspicious of you too! :>)

I know we're going to have a blast, and I look forward to meeting you too amigo...and "Damage" is my middle name!

(Actually it's David, but at one point I was SERIOUSLY thinking of having it legally changed to "Danger" so that I could tell people "my middle name is Danger"...and be able to prove it! Turns out that changing your name is a real hassle - who knew!)

[mamaroux]

I just got a sample of Dove's Energy Glow in the mail! Anyone try this yet?

[djgriff]

Tastes like chicken!!

OH, BEHAVE!! YEAH, BABY YEAH!!!!

[piscesgirl]

Rossvegas, I almost had BOTN reading this post! You crack me up! Can't wait to see you at Fest - with my eye protection, of course.

[bluesgirl]

i use that stuff, but i hate the 'tan' smell you have to smell all day at the office!

The Hawaiian Tropic smells more like suntan lotion.

[bluesgirl]

Sounds like a plan. Wonder if mamaroux, muffaletta diver and bluesbaby want to be the bridesmaids?

No, but it sounds like we would like it around here.

Can't wait to see you either, Darlin'! And don't forget that I'm owed a dance at the Fais do do! :>)

Sounds like a plan. Wonder if mamaroux, muffaletta diver and bluesbaby want to be the bridesmaids?

Am I the matron of Honour/Honor? ... or is that horror?

[bluesgirl]

Am I the matron of Honour/Honor? ... or is that horror?

How about the Dominatrix of Honor? :D

[jerseygirl67]

BTW, when you use this stuff.....I highly recommend using wet naps to wipe off the lotion from the palms of your hands and whatever other body parts **blush*** you don't want to be tanned. Then you gotta stand around for a few minutes nekked to let it dry before putting on clothes, b/c it will stain clothing if you're not dry yet when you get dressed.

You are sooo right...it can get everywhere....must be careful.... And have to dry off....

[jerseygirl67]

Sounds like a plan. Wonder if mamaroux, muffaletta diver and bluesbaby want to be the bridesmaids?

can i be the flower girl???? Pleassseeee

[Muffaletta Diver]

MuffMan, if you look better in that bridesmaids dress than I do, I don't want to play. ;) (and no fair shaving your legs)

My bumps, humps and lumps are not very ladylike, so I don't think you have to worry.

[bluesgirl]

can i be the flower girl???? Pleassseeee

OK. And Ross can be the ring bearer.

[Muffaletta Diver]

I thought Ross was the Groom?

[sophisticated sissy]

Who gets to hold the leashes during the ceremony?

[bluesgirl]

I thought Ross was the Groom?

No, Barb is. Or I am. Anyone, one of us is the groom. And we are registered at Tanning Beds 'R Us.

[Festaholic]

Is it just me or can you feel the anticipation and excitement growing. When a simple warning thread about Acute Pastiness turns into an 11 page freakfest involving bronzed meat hammers, you know people are getting excited about fest.:D

[Muffaletta Diver]

Barb proposed to Ross. Please follow along.

[bluesgirl]

Who gets to hold the leashes during the ceremony?

That can be your job.

[jerseygirl67]

"Bronzed meat hammers" LMAO.....Oh my god!!!!

[Muffaletta Diver]

bronzed meat hammers

Holy sh*t. That is the hardest I have ever laughed while reading this bored. And I'm at work.

That would a kick a$$ name for a band if anyone is currently looking for one.

[sophisticated sissy]

That can be your job.

Oh, boy! It will be the crowning moment of my life!:D

[freebo]

Bronzed meat hammers... TFF!

This group is WHACK!

(And I love that about yall :D )

[Muffaletta Diver]

Oh, boy! It will be the crowning moment of my life!:D

sissy...I require a latex collar and a little astroglide to allow the collar to move freely.

[Rossvegas]

One night only!

Bronzed Meat Hammer
with special guests
Muffaletta Diver!

[freebo]

Is there a band called the Stump Grinders?

I always thought that would be a great band name.

Kind of country, kind of kinky.

All in fun...

[Muffaletta Diver]

Is there still time to print buttons?

[sophisticated sissy]

sissy...I require a latex collar and a little astroglide to allow the collar to move freely.
Be happy to accommocate your every desire.
Do you like those ball-gag thingies, too? With a mask? :p

[Rossvegas]

Oh, I think I just found myself a new Board handle! :>)

[Muffaletta Diver]

Be happy to accommocate your every desire.

Nope...JUST a collar. :p

[jerseygirl67]

a latex collar? are there latex shorts to go with that?

[Muffaletta Diver]

a latex collar? are there latex shorts to go with that?

Nope...JUST a collar. :p

[Rossvegas]

Okay, now I'm thinking about baseball again...for totally different reasons. Even Tommy LaSorda can't ersase the spectre of Muff in latex shorts and a collar. Please....make it stop!

[jerseygirl67]

Nope...JUST a collar. :p

And I am supposed to be studying for my life insurance exam with visions of Muff in a collar.....OHHHHHHH

[pokerchick66]

Oh, I think I just found myself a new Board handle! :>)

What, Ball-gag Thingie? ;)

[Muffaletta Diver]

Okay, now I'm thinking about baseball again...for totally different reasons. Even Tommy LaSorda can't ersase the spectre of Muff in latex shorts and a collar. Please....make it stop!

Sorry, Ross. I must have spent too much time on the upper side of Bourbon over the last few days. It's the easiest way to Laffite's Blacksmith Shop tho...

[sophisticated sissy]

What, Ball-gag Thingie? ;)

Pokerchick ... you F.R.E.A.K. !!!:D

[Rossvegas]

Not that there's anything wrong with that....

[pokerchick66]

Pokerchick ... you F.R.E.A.K. !!!:D

Hee hee hee! :D

[Rossvegas]

What, Ball-gag Thingie? ;)

Fine, as long as you change your board name to Gag Reflex. Deal? :>)

[Muffaletta Diver]

LOL...we are all FREAKS, sissy. I keep sitting here thinking...I SO need to take my picture off my posts on this bored. For so many reasons.

[sophisticated sissy]

Fine, as long as you change your board name to Gag Reflex. Deal? :>)

I think I like the sound of "Gag Reflex Inspiration" better.;)

[sophisticated sissy]

I'm changing my screen name to "Fat Old Boring Two-Faced Get". :D

[jerseygirl67]

I think I like the sound of "Gag Reflex Inspiration" better.;)

this is degenerating a quite a rapid pace.....and we haven't even gotten to NO yet!

[Muffaletta Diver]

This little thread frenzy has been too much fun in the middle of a work day. Seriously...thanks.

[jerseygirl67]

This little thread frenzy has been too much fun in the middle of a work day. Seriously...thanks.

It has been fun...back to studying...although, for some reason, I feel like I should be having a cigarette now!

Enjoy your day all!!!

[Muffaletta Diver]

It has been fun...back to studying...although, for some reason, I feel like I should be having a cigarette now!

Enjoy your day all!!!

All the talk of the bronzed meat hammers, was it? ;)

[Rossvegas]

Well, it certainly wasn't you in the collar and latex shorts! Talk about your "gag reflex inspiration".... :>)

[bluesbaby]

Holy Latex, Batman! How did this thread get so out of control?!?!?

All this talk about collars and astroglide and gag balls!

Now I feel like I need to be the one thinking about baseball, or reciting the times tables in my head, or something. ;)

[Muffaletta Diver]

Hey, Ross, maybe her tastes are different than yours...

[sophisticated sissy]

LOL...we are all FREAKS, sissy. I keep sitting here thinking...I SO need to take my picture off my posts on this bored. For so many reasons.

Yeah, maybe you should use a pic of Pope Benedict instead.

[Muffaletta Diver]

I hear he's smooth with the ladies...

[sophisticated sissy]

Oh, yes ... definitely S-M-O-O-V-E!!!

[bluesbaby]

Hey, Ross, maybe her tastes are different than yours...


Oh-oh! Disregard my previous statement. Thats how rumors get started. Nope, actually the boring truth is that I am kind of a girl scout.

[sophisticated sissy]

A girl scout? :confused:

Looks like Rossvegas might have a little competition ... :p

[Rossvegas]

Oh-oh! Disregard my previous statement. Thats how rumors get started. Nope, actually the boring truth is that I am kind of a girl scout.

Awesome! The visual of you in the scout uniform is SO much better then Muff in the latex shorts!

(By the way, I think "Benedict" is Muff's "safe word".)

[Phatpapa]

Oh-oh! Disregard my previous statement. Thats how rumors get started. Nope, actually the boring truth is that I am kind of a girl scout.


That's ok bb, I'm an Eagle scout and that doesn't stop me

[bluesbaby]

Awesome! The visual of you in the scout uniform is SO much better then Muff in the latex shorts!

(By the way, I think "Benedict" is Muff's "safe word".)

Now, quit that! Or this is going to start all over again!!

[bluesbaby]

That's ok bb, I'm an Eagle scout and that doesn't stop me

Excellent, Papa!

[Phatpapa]

Awesome! The visual of you in the scout uniform is SO much better then Muff in the latex shorts!

And no, you wont see me in my uniform Ross

[Muffaletta Diver]

Oh-oh! Disregard my previous statement. Thats how rumors get started. Nope, actually the boring truth is that I am kind of a girl scout.

It's OK...I was referring to jerseygirl's tastes, not yours, bluesbaby. i know you're a sheep in wolf's clothing, just like me.

[Muffaletta Diver]

And who said anything about latex shorts...I have have said repeatedly...JUST a collar!

[pokerchick66]

Now, quit that! Or this is going to start all over again!!

Hey bluesbaby, here's something for you and your crew when you go to Cafe Du Monde:

http://www.neworleansrestaurants.com/cafebeignet/coupons.html

You can probably print out as many as you need!

[sophisticated sissy]

And who said anything about latex shorts...I have have said repeatedly...JUST a collar!

hmmm ... Can you get a priest's collar in latex? :confused:

[Muffaletta Diver]

Are you trying to get the Philippino women at CDM to beat down bluesbaby? Those coupons are for Cafe Beignet...

But I do dig the Diabetic Special...free beignets with Daquiri purchase! :eek:

[pokerchick66]

Oh. Well, maybe they will honor it anyway . . . sort of like a price match deal.
Or they can use them at Cafe Beignet! :)

[Muffaletta Diver]

Oh. So now you talk to me.

[pokerchick66]

Oh. So now you talk to me.

That would be kinda hard to do. :rolleyes:

Ross,

That's quite a disclaimer... I wouldn't worry about it too much, as long as you arn't wearing sox with sandals... in addition - you should be just fine. I will be sure to hand you a cold one to help you along!

Ha, ha! Yep! I am stoked!

[bluesbaby]

Oh jeez.... I can just see the trouble you and I are going to get into....How much FUN! LOL

Now, if only I could talk my red-headed friend to join us in NOLA! She just happens to be married to the bass player for Tommy Castro. Would that be some kinda trouble, or what?!?!?

[Muffaletta Diver]

Remember the creedo of those who do things they should not, full well knowing they should not be doing what they are doing but the part of them who wants to do what they are doing wins out over the part of them that knows that they should not be doing what they are doing: "What happens in New Orleans..."

[piscesgirl]

That would be dead-on b@lls accurate, Jersey. LOL BTW, That's an industry term. :D

Ooooo, I do like to watch. Much more fun!

Let the Spiked Au laits flow ;)

Let the Spiked Au laits flow ;)

And so they shall. Commence with the dispensing of the Kahlua!

Alas. I have to leave you with this discussion for now. I am off to pick up my puplet from the vet and bring her happy tail home. :)

[Muffaletta Diver]

YAY! the pup is homebound...like me next week, positive vibes for the pooch, J.

[bluesgirl]

Barb proposed to Ross. Please follow along.

But Ross missed the proposal, and I caught it, so we're having a TH same sex wedding in St. Louis.

[bluesgirl]

Oh, boy! It will be the crowning moment of my life!:D

I'll lend you Dave's crown.

[bluesgirl]

Nope...JUST a collar. :p

YUM!!!

[bluesgirl]

I think that legally falls under the " If you cant remember it, then it never happened "rule.

That's my favourite rule.

[bluesgirl]

This is my official biorhythm for first weekend:

It is also beneficial to seek out the company of other enthusiastic people. Being around those who are positive and enthusiastic is equally stimulating and invigorating. And as this process is contagious, even more beneficial and creative energy comes your way.


Is that great, or what?????!!!!!???!!!

[jerseygirl67]

Hmmm. I guess only time (and degree of slurgage) will tell. :)

Jeez...I go away for a few hours an boom....all these posts...trying to catch up...

Hope the pup is OK BBaby....

And how high should should we look for your freak flags...Ross, Gumbo, MD?????:eek:

[bluesbaby]

Janice, I thought you drank alcohol? :p

Oh, my fine friend. In the morning, I drink my NOLA coffee with a little something extra which some might call alcohol 'lite'. As the day goes on, however, I intend to switch to something a little more high octane. ;)

[bluesbaby]

Jeez...I go away for a few hours an boom....all these posts...trying to catch up...

Hope the pup is OK BBaby....

And how high should should we look for your freak flags...Ross, Gumbo, MD?????:eek:

Alright, Jersey! You got your avatar up!

Thanks for the thoughts about the pup. SHe was bouncing around like a squirrel on speed....very happy to be home, and feeling much better. The vampire marks on her neck look terrible, but she doesnt seem to be bothered too much. She'll be mended completely in no time.

I guess I missed it? What happened to the pup? A bat bite? Glad she's okay.

Will you be out on Main Street on Saturday?

[bluesbaby]

Will you be out on Main Street on Saturday?

We think a coyote got her. She has bite marks all over her neck and chest. She is a small dog who thinks she is big, and she will tangle with anything.

Thanks, yep, she's doing way better now. :)

Oh, and no, sadly I will be 30K feet in the air on my way back to DFW around 1pm Sat. Waaahhhh.

[swag]

Well, if you're in the air at 1pm, you have plenty of time to get to the fest in time for Terrance Simien and Dr John.

[festbabe]

Bluesbaby - yeah - come see Dr. John! He's scheduled to take the stage at 9:30 - you gots pleeeeeeenty of time!

[mamaroux]

How about the Dominatrix of Honor? :D

OH I love that! I can wear my black leather corset and carry my purple leather flogger! You always have such good ideas!

[mamaroux]

You are sooo right...it can get everywhere....must be careful.... And have to dry off....

OH you have an avatar now! HELLO other jersey person! :) Nice to finally see ya!

[mamaroux]

Alas. I have to leave you with this discussion for now. I am off to pick up my puplet from the vet and bring her happy tail home. :)

Excellent news, honey! Hope the pup is doing well and will not get into that situation again!

[bluesbaby]

Excellent news, honey! Hope the pup is doing well and will not get into that situation again!

Thanks, mama! Yes I will have to paddle her naughty behind if she tries that again!

I've been really, really bad. Yes I have. Very bad...

[stlbarb]

(Actually, I've been really, really good, but I am willing to LEARN how to be bad.)

you are soooo bad!
it'll be soooo good to see you!

[mamaroux]

okay, I went to CVS, they had the L'Oreal Sublime Glow Daily Moisturizer, they had it on sale, buy one, get on free, so I bought that and the face one (both were $9.99) and the Jergen's was on sale for $7.99, but I got two for one, so an even better deal... and I'll be darn...It really does work! I actually have a bit of color on my extremely ghostly white body! (Yes, I know, fat does look better tan and I can't really tan, so this is it!) I'm actually pretty pleased!

THANKS KELLI!

Ross, go buy some... I've used it 2x and can see a difference.

Aint it cool? The Jergins looks natural and it really only takes a couple days to see a nice difference. Every day for 2 weeks and you will be bronzed! I don't even mind the tan-in-a-can 'funk'. It is not as bad as it used to be...they have made lots of improvements in sunless tanning lotions these days.

[Rossvegas]

I almost pulled the trigger and bought some today, but I just KNOW I'm gonna miss some spots, and then what? Do you folks cover ALL of you, or just your face? Man, this tanning bizness is hard!

[sharon_loves_fats]

You're jus feelin' the pressure bein' a male usin' self tannin' lotion... jus get over it, it's all good :)

one little problem: a few years back i used the lotion stuff and got a tint of color. easy, looked good. cool, a tan without skin damage. but then it got a little moist at fest so i wore my really cool calf height rubber boots (with the big yellow & red lips - quite eye catching). only problem was it then got warm that day, and sweat combined with the boots being snug in a few spots caused my tan to look like a giraffee. luckily it happened on sunday, and i spent monday around the pool evening up my color the old fashioned way.

true story. i didnt even exaggerate on this one.

Take a deep breath, hun. It'll be OK. The lotion goes on your BODY. You can put it on your face if you chose, most women don't need to do that, since they wear base makeup which provides the color they need to look tanned.

Barb, I once experienced a situation when there was some streaks due to me not paying attention when I put the lotion on, and I didn't do it evenly. I found that a loofa pad and warm water will blend in the streaks and splotches on any 'boo boo's'.

[Rossvegas]

Thanks Darlin', but I think I'm just gonna kick it Old Skool. There's parts of my middle back that I can't reach (how do you gals do those bras up anyaway?), and I'll just end up looking like an orange skunk!

it was way more than streaks or blotches. i had a straight line around the top of both calves where the boot tops had run. then been patches on my shins and back of my calves - looked like a pigment condition. i did use a loofa to help remove some of the remaining color. a day in the real sun and i was fine.

[mamaroux]

So now everyone like George Hamilton :eek:

no, baby, nothing like that at all! Whew! LOL

[mamaroux]

So there's hope for me, even at this late date???

Yup! I see a difference, I really do! I mean it's not like I'm dark tan or anything, but my skin has a ... glow... a bit of color to it. I'm amazed!

Aint it cool? The Jergins looks natural and it really only takes a couple days to see a nice difference. Every day for 2 weeks and you will be bronzed! I don't even mind the tan-in-a-can 'funk'. It is not as bad as it used to be...they have made lots of improvements in sunless tanning lotions these days.

The kid next door works at Hollywood Tans (my youngest used to manage it) and she kept telling me to come to the salon and tan, well, with my meds, I just can't do that... and I thought her mom looked more orange than tan. I'm tickled with this... I doubt I'll use it every day, but this is really cool!

Guess I gotta go shoppin' tomorrow!

I almost pulled the trigger and bought some today, but I just KNOW I'm gonna miss some spots, and then what? Do you folks cover ALL of you, or just your face? Man, this tanning bizness is hard!

Well... the first time, I got papa to do my back and he sort of got carried away... giving a man the job of putting moisturizer on ya can be dangerous... enjoyable but dangerous. I've got a streaky part on my leg, but what the hell? If I missed putting spf on me, I'd have streaky parts too. The past two times, I told him he didn't have to do my entire back, but I did my arms and legs and boob area.... not like being naked in a tanning booth.

Thanks Darlin', but I think I'm just gonna kick it Old Skool. There's parts of my middle back that I can't reach (how do you gals do those bras up anyaway?), and I'll just end up looking like an orange skunk!

oh it's easy... you guys manage to unhook 'em easy enough, dontcha?

Up early? I was on my way to bed from last night! Thought I better check what's up before snoozing, and glad I did. Bluesbaby, you look pretty 'fair' skinned in your picture, so you really need not to get the missed spots on your back! Just give me a shout and I'll be right over to help out! I would not want you being crawfish red...

I should have known! Just now on your way to bed, huh! Hee hee! Pic is from New Years. Not cool to have a tan in winter. Everyone knows its fake. Witness the miracle of the tan in a tube when I get the Arts Fest pix posted from yesterday. LOL

BTW, thanks for the kind offer. I may need some help with that when its time to put on the Real SPF at da Fest, so I don't look like the aforementioned crawfish. Ha, ha!

[Orleansnj]

excellent. I can't sleep past 6:30 or so either. LOL. But when I get to New Orleans all bets are off - I can stay up for days like when in college and then just catch a cat nap and do it again - until Monday....then I will have to sleep - ha ha.

can't wait to see those pics.
