okay.
Peter says that the only thing that makes the foreskin dream funny is who the person is, so I'll tell you. It was Midge Ure.
The thirty-five to forty-five crowd are going, ugh! while the younguns are all like, who? And that one lone middle aged knitter who was, no still is, a huge Ultravox fan is furious. I'd apologize to her but she's already hit "unsubscribe". Ah well.

Midge Ure is kind of hot, so don't feel bad! He did a cookery programme over here (in the UK) where is personality really shone. Obviously that wasn't important in your dream! :D

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That's not at all who I expected!
Also, does the fact that you're leaving there in two weeks mean you aren't going to MSWF?

Hmm. I'm afraid you missed a category: the thirty-five to forty-five crowd who are also all like, who? I apparently missed Ultravox entirely. I didn't miss Live Aid, though, but I guess Geldoff was the only one who really registered.

The next category: 45-49 crowd who says, "WHO?! What?!" Never heard of Midge or Ultravox. I'm unsubscribing. :D

Hee-hee-hee-hee hee!
Okay, I like Midge Ure and Ultravox...
unlike you, oh rocker chick, I was a "Durannie" in my teens. All that brit-pop was like mother's milk to me.
Oh well, I'm going to have to scroll down and see if there's any more to this dream story.
I can always count on you for a laugh, Jodi.

I'm not sure if I'll be able to ever watch my husband's old Ultravox videos tape with him again without cracking up.

Midge Ure has an awesome voice...and I thought the "if I was" video was pretty darn cool (back in the day).
Although - seeing it again...his dancing reminds me of Rick Astley - who also has an amazing voice...
God bless youtube...

I was so afraid you were going to say Phil Collins.
