You Just Never Know

Of all the pieces I have written for HumorOutcasts, the one that keeps getting “found” on StumbleUpon is the one about serenity pads. It’s a funny topic, but what the … ? Serenity pads? They have to be kidding.

Well, hell! If June Allyson and Whoopi Goldberg could do it, I can do it, too. The only thing is, they probably got fat fees for endorsing incontinence products. So far I haven’t gotten any fat fees, but I am getting the one thing my heart has craved since I first learned to walk, talk and make a nuisance of myself: attention.

Ooh! Attention!

Okay. What other highly personal and potentially embarassing things can I write about: girdles; jock straps; brassieres; Tampax, vaginal suppositories; toupees, speedos … oh, the possibilities!

I am an opera singer in my 60s turned aspiring writer and I live somewhere in New York City. In other words, I'm weird, but harmless.

    but are June Allyson and Whoopi Goldberg truly happy?

      June Allyson died in 2006, so whatever she earned for plugging Depends isn’t doing her much good right now.

      I can’t speak for Whoopi Goldberg, because I never met her. Extra cash, even for doing Poise commercials, might not make a person happy, but it does make being miserable a lot easier to take.

    Serenity pads sound like something to sit on while practicing yoga!

      Hehe! Yes, there is great power in euphemisms.
