Dave Barry Learns . . . about being a husband from 50 Shades (truncated)
Time ^ | Mar 4, 2014 | Dave Barry

Posted on 02/14/2015 12:17:56 PM PST by StAntKnee

So I read Fifty Shades of Grey. This is the book written by female British author “E. L. James” that became a huge bestseller, devoured by pretty much every woman on Earth except my wife (or so she claims).

I think I might be the only man who read this book. I did it sneakily, hiding the cover, especially when I was on an airplane, which actually is a good place to read this book because you have access to a barf bag.

Very funny. My wife and I actually had the conversation the other day. I asked if after nearly thirty years of marriage she really wanted me to slap her backside during coitius. Much to my relief, she said no.

Good un. Dave always strikes a chord with some personal aspect of our lives, which is why we enjoy him so much.

If you EVER get a chance to see Dave Barry live on stage...go! His story telling is his writing style, with side splitting pauses and, dare I say, “brow knitting.” When I saw him, one of the stories he told was about his a BIG “main” dog and his small “auxiliary” dog, hurricane season, a destroyed back porch and a still standing door frame. Hysterical.

Thank you so much for the tip. I will definitely take your advice. Probably should not go to see him until an hour after eating, Right?
