“Course we do.”

If you’re going to do it you might as well have an audience and make some money!
Great take on the prompt.

It’s funny Marcy because last week I transferred “The White Album” onto my MP3 player so I listened to this song last week for the 1st time in years and then… BOOM! It becomes the ultimate question.
Coincidence? I think not.

Cool! I’ve always loved the song, and it had a tiny part in my personal history. I’m going to write about it for the Moonshine grid.

Oops, I didn’t know the prompt was from a song. I should really brush up on my Beatles.

Nate -I had to Google it. Um, and then I didn’t even listen to the song. /hangs head in shame
Thom-I’m not sure if I admire their entrepreneurship or if I dislike their exhibitionism.

Writing dialogue used to scare me. So, I’ve been working on it for the past year and a half or so. The result is that I no longer fear it. Courtenays recent tutorial was spot on!
Thanks for the nice comments.

This reminded me of the time I had to walk by one of those ATM machine stands that are enclosed with glass at busy city intersections. A couple was doing it on the little table inside in front of traffic. Your answer to the prompt could easily have been their foreplay!
