The louder the monkey, the smaller its balls.
I know that all of you will be shocked, shocked I say, to hear this...
The 2nd replacement girl can't come. Mom said no.
Another possible replace? Nope. Different Mom, same answer.
So I have to eat a ticket.
(No, I'm NOT going. What's worse than watching rasslin' with one screaming teenager, namely LMFD, by my side? 2 more screaming with her!)
Now, as for the original girl... I pointed out that she ought to pay for the ticket. 3 guesses, first 2 don't count...
"But dad! If I insist she pay for the ticket, she won't be my friend anymore!" (Yeah, right, some friend)
And mom adds "It's not her fault, her MOTHER said no." Ask her mother to pay then?... nah, I know when the cause is lost.
I just hope the other two show up (due in a half hour) and WITH their money.
"Never again!" Of course, I said that the last time...

The fix is simple:
The daughter pays for whomever bails. She didn't choose wisely, or at least qualify her choices up front.
Being hit with the bill will possibly cause a re-think on future occurrences.

'Nother tear of reminiscing. Watching Studio Wrestling with my Dad on Channel 11 WIIC. Pie Traynor and Bruno Samartino are the only two names I can remember. Oh yah, in a gravelly voice "Who can...Ameri-can!" Wow that was about 40 years ago.

My uncle used to wrestle Sammartino (Sr), Pampero Firpo and George (the Animal) Steele way back in the day.
He had some interesting stories to tell regarding George, who was absolutely nothing like he was portrayed.
Kayfabe and all that.

I guess I don't get it. How is it "punishing" LFMD because YOU are holding her accountable for you eating the tickets based on her representation of her friend's commitments? I probably would have been a little PO'd at my daughter for pulling that. But then again, I had no counterforce to deal with then.
Disconnect. It sends the wrong message to LMFD.

Hmmph. Well, let's just say that this is one area that the boss & I disagree on, and leave it at that. Suffice to say that the boss has heard loud and clear that this is the last time we're eating a ticket, and that point she agrees with.
And LMFD herself told me that next time, she gets the shekels first. She did go through a little stress trying to find a replacement today; actually had 2 different kids lined up, but both times Mom said "no" to a last minute evening trip downtown. So it's not like she got off scott free.
Now, I could press the point, make everyone miserable, and not have the boss talk to me for a week. (Yeah, I know, it's a tempting thought sometimes). Which ends up in a win-the-battle lose-the-war type situation.
Just can't win sometimes.

WWE is a cross between badly-performed performance art and soft-core gay porn. a friend and i used to go years ago (at the time there were two brands, and we went to the "smarter" brand for the basest reasons). seriously, though ... $35/seat? you're getting off cheaply ... to see a particular match in las vegas i had to have a friend pull in some favors and then we paid *only* $150/seat. we were just a few rows from the ring.

I stopped watching that show back when it was WCW and WWF. I was probably 12 or so. Never went to a match though.
