THURSDAY NIGHT STREET MARKET- IT DOESN'T GET ANY BETTER THAN THIS!

Thursday always start slow.  It's because Hump Day is history and Friday isn't here yet.  Either way, Thursdays are just a waste of 24 hours.   If they eliminated Thursdays, then every week would have six days (nice even number), and every month could have exactly five weeks (nice odd number) and every year would have 360 days. It would all be soooooo tidy!  Unfortunately, they didn't put us in charge of the calendar during our previous lives in ancient Rome.  Instead we had to clean up after all of the orgies - thank God we died and were reincarnated as alcoholics!  It was traumatic!

So the only good thing about Thursdays (at least in Palm Springs) is the night street market.  They close the main drag (Palm Canyon Drive) and let just about anyone with $25 bucks set up and sell stuff.   We usally wander over just for laughs - because believe us - it's always entertaining and always hilareous and tonight was no exception.  The first stop was a booth set up by the Republican party.  We wanted to join because we like elephants better than jackasses (symbols of the Repulicans & Democrats - they fit, huh!), but everything was in Spanish!  We don't "habla Espanol" very well and we were worried that the ballots would come in Spanish as well - the fear of accidentally voting for Ross Perot kept us from signing up!

This whole Spanish thing totally confused us, so Stacy stopped at the next table set up by the local Chabad.  It was free to "ask the Rabbi" (that's whatthe sign said) so she did!  He had no idea why the Republican party information was all in Spanish, he didn't know who would win the World Series and he had no helpful hints on picking this week's Lotto numbers.  So now we're not only NOT becoming Republicans, we're NOT becoming Jewish either.  It's so disappointing!  We finished the night by wandering by the "Ear Cuff" stand because we're always interested in new sex toys.  It turns out that we were way off base with that idea so we headed home for the night.  But, tomorrow is Friday and guess what?  That's right!  We're going out on the town and you won't believe where, or with who...

    
The market is full of...ah...hmmm...ah...People!                                       We couldn't register - No Habla Espanol!

    
He didn't know - but we'll still celebrate Yon Kippur!                        It sounded kinky - That's what attracted us|!

    I notice you left the 'u' out of 'traumatic' in your posting. Was this a "Freudian Slip?" (ed note:  The "U" is in "traumatic", and a Freudian slip is what Mrs. Freud wore under her dress! LOL) I certainly see why u would not be into trauma. Reincarnation into an alcoholic would just be another interesting event in your days! In reference to the political symbols assigned to our two major parties being appropriate - - - we certainly know that when an elephant dumps on you it means you are buried in it.  By the way, they give Spanish lessons at the Hasidic Jewish temple - - but not on Saturdays.
