Ladies and Gentlemen heed my advice…

BoA skating center

…pull down your pants and slide on the ice! (What is that from and why is it in my head?)

The Bank of America City Center skating rink opens tonight at 6:00 pm. General admission is $6 for adults, and $3 for seniors and children under 12. Skates can be rented for $4. Discounts are available for school groups. The regular schedule will be Monday through Friday, 10am to 10pm, and Saturdays and Sundays 11am. to 10pm. The rink is open on all winter holidays.

(Correction: My friend Tom informs me that it is not ‘pants’ but ‘britches’ and that this line comes from the poet Stanley Holloway.  And I’ll bet I did get it from M*A*S*H*. Whatever, just pull down your pants.)

  2. It iw/was from M*A*S*H - the last show where Sidney (the psychologist) reminds them that he had told them that once before. And it is “pants” not “britches”. Watch that show as often as I can. Love it.
