“My wife was afraid of
the dark…then she saw me naked and now she’s afraid of the light.” – Rodney
Dangerfield
Since I missed the 34th annual mooning of Amtrak in July (click HERE if you would like information about next year's event), I decided that I should go skinny-dipping. Since I was in TEXAS it was in keeping with my motto of “out of town; out of state; and out of control.” Such a naughty activity but, the naked truth is: it does no harm – well…..unless someone is traumatized by the sight of my body.
And, I get it, there are some things one
shouldn’t do au natural – host a children’s TV show, insulate the attic with fiber
glass.... And you probably shouldn’t meet your daughter’s boyfriend or
your future inlaws sans clothes. But skinny dipping is such a wonderful
feeling. And there are advantages to wearing my birthday suit:
- I won't have to shop for swim suits (reason enough!)
- I won't have to worry about pickpockets
- I can go on a blind date and not worry about what to wear
- I can attend my own birthday party dressed nostalgically
And, by the way, in
ancient Rome when a man testified in court he had to swear by his testicles.
Not sure if he had whip them out and place one hand on them as he swore, but
its an interesting image….
And, for your next girlfriends’ get together,
go skinny-dipping!! (But leave the cameras at home!)
