Best Review of Duran Duran evar.
By [info]chromeangel


Cougar prey migration, generates massive interest.

Being on the front lines of the recent cougar gathering in Las Vegas, Nevada was a hair raising experience.  It seems that a rare sighting of their most desired prey, a group of  foreign lads that go by the name of Duran Duran enticed a record number of big tawny cats from their lairs. This evenings hunt was fraught with  posturing and tense moments, as each of the proud and magnificent creatures vied for the best perch to lie in wait for a chance to pounce on the afore mentioned prey.

This being the first of many sightings of this rare and very delectable prey, I would recommend all Duran Duran lovers to try and make to what may be one of the last opportunities to see this prey in the wild and as a special treat it's fairly unique and elusive predator.

Due to radio tagging we are able to track the migratory habits of the prey and can fairly accurately pinpoint their expected locations for the next month or two.

    It is a well known fact that most cougars are solitary hunters but in these gatherings there seems to be a cooperations that is just "understood" as this intrepid correspondent found out.  It was during a brief lull in the activities of the evening that I was approached by not one but two of the felines and it was only by sheer luck, a small bit of knowledge I have gained in my years of working with such beautiful creatures, and a clever deflecting of their attention to their favored prey that I was able to escape with my life.

    ( *editors note* This is a work of parody and is intended to amuse and inform the reader ) No cats were harmed during the course of the evening and
    DURAN DURAN KICKED ASS :) ).




  • In other news... well. I decided that breaking up with Ryan was about the dumbest idea I've had in a long time. And that is saying something. So after a minor bit of groveling, my world once again turns in the right direction.

    Meanwhile back in Vegas...
    What a blast. DD and then Ultraviolet Sound, good stuff! [info]chromeangel and [info]victorianrose23 are rock stars. And so easy to be around. I think they are keepers.
    I think I can say... going out on a limb here... that this was the best DD show I've ever seen.
    And I've seen more than one. Or six.


    Vegas baby. Vegas.

    I've done that, but don't recall it being unlike anything else.
    You got a hooker hookup?
