The Triumphant Return of the Double Helix

The inaugural reunion of the Double Helix of Fear and Retribution (aka Karen, Kat and David) was the usual phenomenal occassion when we three get together. 45-minutes into the 10 hours together and our cheeks hurt from laughing. The best lines were...
"He sends me his regards? He'd send his regards to anything with a hatchet wound!"
"Are you sure you've never directed porn?"
"If they can hear you, they can shoot you."
"With skinny girls, that's nothing but bones banging against you."
"Sorry, I was looking at some big tatas. Can you heave for me?"
And the refrain as we looked at the 165 pictures that we took was...
"Damn, we're good looking. I would so do us!"

As we got into David's car early in the evening to go to the show at The Garage, the song that came on his CD player was "Ants Marching" by Dave Matthews Band. We sang with greater than usual gusto. So fitting that we had spent the afternoon on a pub crawl while all our OD co-workers were muddling through the layoffs and reorg...

He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth bite to
eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
These crimes between us grow deeper
.....
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
....

Driving in on this highway
All these cars and upon the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged
No time to exchange
And all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennas waving
They all do it the same
They all do it
the same way
