Confessions Of A (Failed) Teen-aged Snow Bunny

A wonderful new playpen for the release of belly laughs, titters, guffaws and tee hees. You think maybe Dave Barry's got a female twin out there somewhere?

Dearest Darlingest Caseyest:

If I ever, ever stop laughing I'll be able to construct a coherent comment.

I'm just saying one thing - listen close, sistah:

The time has come for you to write that novel or create a collection of short stories.

End of rant. This is a classic! You paint such a perfect picture of your experience (oy! what an experience!) and I'm eating a second helping with a big, big spoon.

Fabu, my love, abu fabu!

Love you big time!

I've always known there was a very good reason I never attempted to ski. This story certainly reconfirmed that for me.

For your upcoming serial, I've got a suggestion for a title: The Adventurous Exploits of KC Whaddya think? :)

I liked it! No one can say your teen years were 'uneventful', huh? Thanks for a bright spot in my tumultuous Friday afternoon, Casey. Take care,

I tried sking when I was young and foolish (and living in Germany the first time) after quickly discovering that the only thing I was good at on skis was falling down, I spent all my ski resort time in front of a roaring fire with a warm gluhwein in hand.

You poor girl! My heart almost skipped a beat there. Yes, please keep them coming. I've enjoyed all the stories popping up in this category and recommend mind-full's most recent.

Li'l ole Boreal? You mean the place that taught the entire San Francisco Bay Area and most of Sacramento how to ski? You mean the place they filmed the ski sequences in "True Lies"? THAT Boreal?

Unfortunately my central European heritage did not grant me a Germanic or Austrian accent but I've skied enough and had enough beer in Germany to have been shown the Honorary Society of Hoch Burg Liederhosen Schnotnosen Ski Instructor hand shake and Curly Shuffle.

Your tale takes me back to those days. Thanks. Unfortunately I was not the imposing, square-jawed, blue-eyed, Aryan picture of the Garmisch ski scene set but rather the pudgy, wild-eyed, short guy with an instructor jacket that invoked the incredulous but whispered question: "HE'S gonna teach us how to SKI?!"

Casey, for you, I'd find and dust off those wooden skis and give you a that class you never had. Thanks for this funny review. And believe me, your tale is happening every Winter day up there in the Sierra.

Ah, humility! (Reply to this comment)

That teenage ego was such a burden, it always hurt like the dickens every time it got crushed!

A wonderfully funny, and memory-stirring, anecdote.
And I look forward for more to come.

I enjoyed reading this.....I have had a few funny ski related things happen to me but wouldn't know how to put them into a satire piece like this....but I do have a story to tell about something totally unrelated ..I wonder if this would be the place to write it...I have to think about this...but meanwhile, I'm looking forward to reading more..

Thanks ..Hope your feeling good!
