Meryl - Oh High Priestess of the BBM Cult - help us out here!!

Celeste, I just saw your question as I was skimming (and I do mean skimming) this already lengthy thread. :o
Way back in olden days, JLScheib (now JeffWrangler) described the two factions as the Tire-Ironites and the Accidentalists. Later, starboardlight suggested referring to them as the Ironites and the Rimmists. ;D
At any rate, to avoid internecine war, I counsel tolerance. Like the dialogue in the Second Tent Scene, it remains a key chapter in the Book of Sacred Mysteries. :angel:

Will you marry me?
Jeff, will you be my best man?
After Dorothy Parker, and re a comment you made above, it seems right to quote Cole Porter:
"Every time we say goodbye
I die a little..."
My drink: Gin. Oh baby, gin in the garden in spring. It's because of experiences of youth that my heart goes pitapat with gin in the garden in spring. But so be it. It's gettin to be gin (and tonic) time again.

Why, yes, I will marry you, dearest Sarah. And gin in the garden (is that like tea in the Sahara) in spring with you sounds lovely. I think I could even forego my Absolut martinis for a couple of G&Ts there.
Love that line in that song, too, by the way.
How about this one? Not Cole Porter, but especially wonderful when sung by Linda Ronstadt:
What's new?
How is the world treating you?
You haven't changed a bit
Handsome as ever, I must admit.
What's new?
How did that romance come through?
We haven't met since then
Gee but it's nice to see you again.
What's new?
Probably I'm boring you
But seeing you is grand
And you were sweet to offer your hand
I understand.
Adieu.
Pardon my asking what's new
Of course you couldn't know
I haven't changed
I still love you so.

Hiya ednb,
Do we know for a fact that Jack came out to his parents for that reason? I kinda got the hint that Jack had always been left of center since his childhood as far as his parents were concerned - the peeing incident and the picture of the movie star in his room - as per the short story. That he got flak from his old man for that very reason.
"Can't please my old man, no way."

Why, sure, Sarah, I'd be happy to be your best man!
BTW, though I have become committed to scotch (because it doesn't give me the headache that gin does, when I drink it in the evening), I still feel that one of life's under-appreciated pleasures is a nice gin and tonic (with lime) on a warm late-summer afternoon.
