Well,
as you already have read on my previous post, Rainman
and
I attended a Super Bowl Party with the wounded warriors hosted
by the Wounded warriors Roadtrip Network. While we were there,
I was having a great time meeting all those
warriors, however, I was
still on a mission of my own that night. I had a new pick-up line to
try
out with the ladies (check out my last post: Words out of my
mouth). I played it cool at first while I scanned the
crowd for a few
potential
targets. I used my time wisely by
tossing back a couple
glasses
of liquid courage along with the warriors.
I
was a pig on the prowl, checking to see who was available and
what
my chances could be. I had to be careful
in the selection
process. After all, when it comes to the hot steamy
love side
of me – everything has to be perfect. My reputation as a lady
killer
must always remain high. I had
everything going in
my favor, devilishly handsome, very Sauvé and
Rainman’s
credit
card in my pocket.
I
decided Megan, our waitress, was the one I wanted. I saw her
at
the bar picking up an order. This was my
chance, my one
shot at ultimate glory. I jumped down from our table, headed
over
to her and shimmed up onto the bar. I wasted no time
in
bringing home a solid delivery.
“Hi
Megan”
“Is
there something I can help you with sir?
Yeah,
answer me this. On a hot summer night, would you offer
your
throat to the wolf with the red roses?
“Huh,
what?”
I
repeated my line once more; “on a hot summer night, would you
offer your throat to the wolf with the red
roses?”
“Ahh,
I don’t think so, thanks anyway.”
Shot
down and rejected, I was crushed so bad, I felt my chin drag
across
the bar. I looked back at the
table. The warriors watching
gave me (3) eights on my performance.
Hmmmm,
this is no time to give up. I had my
reputation at stake;
I could not be a failure in front of those
warriors, they were
depending
on me. I think they needed to see me
score as much as
I
needed to score. I rolled up my sleeves to get this job done
and
spotted my next target. (Big Duke Six, Big Duke Six, we have
acquired
target bearing two niner zero. One hot brunette,
get
your
people back and your heads down. She is all mine!) I slid down
the bar to where she was standing doing an
interview with one
of the patrons, when I first spotted her I didn’t
realize she was a news
reporter working on a story. She turned to me, smiled and said
“Hello”. I smiled back, ready to try my line on the
news reporter.
Cherie
stuck her microphone in my face and asked me what I
thought
of the party? I responded “On a hot summer night, would
you offer your throat to the wolf with the red
roses?”
She
said “I’m sorry, could you say that again?”
I
repeated my line, only this time I gave her my devilish grin during my delivery. I could
see out of the corner of my eye the little red
light on the camera
shaking from the cameraman laughing at me.
“Oh
Hell No” she said smacking me across the bar with her microphone.
I
picked myself up off the bar and dusted off, “Damm it that
sucked”
I said to no one in particular. I looked
back over to the
warriors,
this time the judging warriors gave me a seven, eight,
and a seven.
(Ahh Big Duke, I may have a tail fire here, I took
some
heavy fire on that last pass) I refused
to give it up. Failure
is
not an option for me, I gave it one more try.
I
went over to Jennifer. This time I pulled out all the stops, there
would
be no holding back this time. I decided
to use my best
impersonation
of Meatloaf.
“Hey
Jennifer, on a hot summer night, would you offer your
throat
to the wolf with the red roses?”
There
was no answer. She just looked at
me. So just in case
she didn’t hear me the first time, I repeated
myself.
She
never said one word to me.
(Mayday,
Mayday, Big Duke, We are going down, repeat,
we
are going down!)
Even
though, as I walked back to the table, my score improved
when
I received (3) tens from the judges. I came to terms that I
needed
to come up with a new pick-up line. I
tilted back another cold
one to drown the burning flames in my
heart. Our waitress Megan
came
by to see if she could bring us another round.
She saw how hurt
I was and gave me a quick hug. Feeling better, I asked her if that
meant
I still had a chance with her. “Forget
it Pig Boy, You blew it
with
that corny line of yours. Work on it and
then we will see. She
trotted
away to get us another round, I turned to the boys and gave
them
a thumbs up!. They in turn smiled back
and gave me three
thumbs
down.
Oh
don’t worry, I’ll be fine, Megan did give me a kiss goodnight
when
I left the bar.
