John Travolta singing Elvis
Yesterday I went to the do-it-yourself-place in the neighborhood.
I needed some plugs to fix 'minor' details in my new apartment.
While walking into the place, a John Travolta looking-alike, wearing a slim yellow Brico T-shirt, blinked to me.
To me?? I forgot to close my mouth. -I really did!- and I guess my eyes were showing question marks of disbelief.
I quickly hided in a row and started looking for my stuff.
Seconds later Elvis was singing through the shop and one person was singing along. 'Are you lonesome tonight...'
I almost started laughing, and I imagined a real 'Gentenaar' -Gentish bloke-, in his sixties, singing the song, next to the screws.
I had to see reality and started looking for my Elvis.
I found him, and turned around almost immediately when it turned out to be the same John Travolta of minutes ago.
This is the moment when you know it will not be finished and you are going towards the moment when you find yourself in a pretty shameful situation.
I needed someone to help me cut a wire, so I needed to ask an employee.
I looked for one, besides John/Elvis, but didn't find one, not ONE in the whole shop...
That was the exact moment when John/Elvis came to me, touching my shoulder, and asking 'Can I help you, darlin' '
Aargh...
What could I say, but yes?
Yes, I need you to cut some wire.
'Ok darlin', I'll get utensils, the right utensils'
Aaargh.....
If you are fond of Elvis songs and John Travolta's in too tiny shirts, girls (or gay guys ;) ) hurry up, you'll find him in the Brico at Blaisantvest, Gent.
How the story ends?
Find out for yourself.
But let me tell you: macho straight guys don't turn gay girls on...
