Egyptian Wedding

When do you realize a bad idea is.... a really bad idea?

Most of the time it is after the fact but honestly you have to admit that it usually occurs to you in the middle of the act. Like hitting on a hard 12, ordering a round of tequila in any situation or eating from a street cart in a third world country..

Then there is an even bigger mistake...doing a wedding striptease in a country where the women are covered head to toe while you pull a Hulk Hogan to your undershirt. So 5 minutes after you walk off the stage, soaked in sweat and your buddy tells you the crowd was horrified, this is when you think that islamic-american relations has probably been kicked back by about 5 decades.


All of us make mistakes but sometimes a mistake could and should have been avoided.. Like when I made the mistake of eating a swarma earlier today and then got the revenge of the Sphinx or at least the revenge of the uncooked meat.

I'm sorry, but your misfortune has me laughing out loud.

I hope you and April are having a good trip. Nothing new in Boston, other than that we killed our Xmas tree by going to DE without arranging for the tree to be fed for a week. Visited NYC briefly on the way home, but you guys were away -- livin' it up in Egypt.

Was there booze at the wedding? Gosh, I hope you didn't make that decision sober. But then again, maybe the bride and groom would have felt jipped had you not blessed them with your talents...

Righetti, I must take exception to your post. You were the HIT of the wedding (other than the bride and groom, of course), and both the men and the women covered head to toe are still talking about the awesomeness that was your completely sober Bon Jovi-inspired striptease. Also, everyone was relieved that the stripping stopped at your undershirt.
