SIT TIGHT

— Boys Will Be Boys —

Before I offend anyone for fear of me being Canceled, this was only written for fun: Actually, as a Storyteller, I Do embellish a bit — Although this one is totally true. Many of you may even relate?

— IVY Curtains ~ Sunday Matinees ~ BYOB —

Down Boy, DOWN! Go forth and Titillate the IVY Peepers.

Twin, Lucky Lar, and I purchased a large property together {between both divorces}. Just a simple ranch house, he took the master bedroom, I got the 2 car garage for my 2 pristine Jaguars; a fair exchange.

But the backyard was a park planners designed dream — A 'never-need' to leave playground — Featuring state of the art outdoor kitchen/barbeque - olympic pool/Jacuzzi - basketball/tennis court and lamppost Halogen lamps for night games. You get the picture; who could ask for anything more? Word-on-our-street was that the former owner's wealthy father was attempting to help keep his daughters' husband from 'straying' by gifting them with this intense-conglomeration. After all of that effort, we heard from the 'hood Gossips, that 'The Husband' wasn't into outside activities - or indoor activities for that matter; often described as a 'couch potato,' but nice try!

The property just behind us, separating our court with an ivy-covered-fence, was the neighbors pool area and a {1} horse training ring covered with sand. One day, while peeking through the thick ivy, I spotted at least a dozen women (all in their 20's) and extremely attractive. I was told they were models/actresses—Nothing shy about them—They never had a 'stitch' of clothes on; not even bikinis. (Seriously!) Along with their playful-antics they would 'in the nude' ~ Double Twozie ~ ride the white-horse around the circular ring – gotta rub?

With my 1st glimpse of this charade through the Ivy, I flew inside to tell Lucky about it–Whew! Then jumped into my (12) cylinder Jaguar - nothing slow about it - and white smoked it up to a friend's house to borrow his huge-field-binoculars; yes, he rode back with me after hearing WHY I wanted them! But, funny, he asked if this 'Thing' can go any faster!

Sundays turned out to be Voyeurism-Day. Friends that we hadn't seen, forever, came out of the woodwork 'visiting us' to see the 'Girl Pony' Show. They told their wives-girlfriends that they were just going over to the 'K's to hang out. The Gardner, who meticulously took care of the grounds for years before us, changed his routine Tuesdays to Sundays! Some wanted to pay an 'Up-Front Fee' bringing with them their outdoor lounging chairs and beach towels. Nah, just our contribution to 'manhood!'

They would bring along every conceivable type of crystal-clear Windex-shinned viewing devices and Instamatic cameras; no butt-pocket digital i-phone video then. The most popular being an authentic 'Submarine Grade' Periscope; as if we never saw a naked-lady before! One 'Lady-Godiva' in particular I just couldn't get over. So, my 'Buds' said to just go ask her out: Bets on this, with odds in their favor, were placed — we would bet on anything — a guy thing! I waited (stalked if you will) until she was leaving. She actually looked better in clothes; kidding!!

Just as she opened the door of her block-long gleaming fire engine red Cadillac convertible, with Vanity Tags that read 'LIPSTICK,' I approached her with the prospect of asking her out! She said, with a smile, that "she wasn't interested in 'Boys' and said that they know we giggle at them through the fence, BUT that's all we get!" (Really!) And, I lost the bet, too!

* Reincarnate Streaming—via 'Beavis & Butthead.' Just corner arcade tassel twirling peep-shows in those days. Just poking fun — No misogyny here.

    Are you looking for a lodger, J-Bud? Charge any rent you like, just as long as the window looks out on next door's garden. I loved this! Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction, and it's so heartening to know that the kind of thing that happens in British comedies of the 1970s can happen in reality too! What's more, I'll take your comedy over any of these so-called vintage classics, as it's much more entertaining! So many favourite moments, but if I had to pick one, it'd have to be the periscope! Move over, Beavis and Butthead. You too, Barbara Windsor and Sid James...

    OhMiGoSh!!! First, if not for the ex-wives, I would totally join the party. Second, with all that sudden activity, why would you all not think that the whole neighborhood knew of your all peeping tomery and voyeurism. Boys get very creative when the urge arises. Dirty, dirty, dirty old men. Suuch fun times. I suggested Vocal make a comedy/fun genre, they haven't yet sent me a bonus for it (#%$#). But I see they are bringing one soon. Please enter this and some others I will be reading. You are absolutely hilarious and thanks for some levity at last.

    That sounds like it was a lot of fun

  • Mark Gagnonabout a year ago

    It must have been tough living next to rowdy neighbors like that. I bet you asked them to move, right?

  • Heather Hublerabout a year ago

    They way she shut you down, lol. But what a story!!

  • C. Rommial Butlerabout a year ago

    Good thing it wasn't Artemis and her Nymphs you encountered, or you might have come to a much nastier end!

  • Margaret Brennanabout a year ago

    Love it. Still giggling as I am about to make my way to the kitchen to cook dinner.

  • Janet Carpenterabout a year ago

    THAT made me smile! The image of you and all your guy-friends peering through the ivy (with increasing amounts of visual aids...really? A periscope? Ha!) has me laughing. Good times, yeah? Thanks for sharing your story!

  • Hi Jay. The beginning of the story got me envious thinking about such wealth. I am poor and often get envious when people tell of such high luxuries or material comforts. My favorite line was "she actually looked better with clothes on" that was hilarious because I think it's true. hahahha thanks for sharing this interesting story
