: : : : : : : Hello to you all:

: : : : : : : Could anyone tell me the possible definition of *meat-packy"? and if I presume it to mean *tightly packed* will it make sense?

: : : : : : :
: : : : : : : She looks mean-packy in her super-tight bikini.

: : : : : : : Thanks

: : : : : : There's an expression from my West Virginia childhood -- solid as a meathouse -- referring to someone's physique. Maybe the two phrases are related?

: : : : : I'd venture a guess that since the bikini is "super-tight," she's bulging a bit around where the strings cut in, the way a pork roast is tied, tightly enough that the string indents the meat.

: : : : Ten pounds of sugar in a five-pound sack.

: : : I came a cross an an article that likened Arnie Schwarzenegger's body to a condom stuffed with walnuts. It's sort of the same idea I think

: : I can identify with those descriptions - when I was a bit chunkier, briefs got a little lost - the pouch was there (worry ye not) but the sides got a bit lost. there are two things a guy can do in those circs - change his waistline or change his style of underpants. I did both.

: : however, some women do not have the same public decency I showed and wear bikinis with straps that disappear into flesh like a cheese wire into brie.

: : the butchers' string disappears into a roast when it expands, the same as a bikini strap sinks into overdone flesh.

: : I once read that a 'bondage hook' had changed a couple's sex-life and tried to imagine what one looked like. turned out it was a bondage 'book' and just poor printing. I hoped the printing was better than the article that mentoned it!

: : L

: I will never look at the Sunday Roast in quite the same way.

: As an aside, my gallery once featured a show of artists protesting the Spanner ruling (gay men doing time for GBH after having consentual S&M sex). I can tell you that "hooks" are a common feature. I'm guessing the editor of the article missed it because it was just plausible.

Just when I thought Lewis had laid the hooks issue to rest, here it is again. I must have lived a sheltered life, because I can't visualize or even imagine the use of hooks in that particular endeavor. (shows how shallow a scientist must be in these other areas of knowledge)
