Mouth to elbow?

first, happy good friday!!!!! weird when someone dies you call the day "good" and then give everyone a holiday. mixed signals.

second, dave, there's more pix coming.

third, mike, that's the other way, elbows to mouth.

But, what does that mean? You can get your elbows to your mouth? I can lick my elbows, does that count?

hey mike,

interesting that you ask...

i used to play alot of school yard football back in jr. high school.

i.e. tackle football without equipment.

well there was this kid named gordon o. who led with his elbows when he tackled us. well, i caught a couple of those elbows with my teeth. not only did it sting, my teeth would be loose for a few days after each blow.

yes, he was a motherfucking idiot...

he was a recent emigre from australia and thought he was playing aussie rules football.

moral to the story: teach immigrants to keep their elbows down when playing football.
