Archive-title: Hippocampus Fountain
|
|
|
|
Perhaps this anecdote will be of some mild interest to those here... I
|
|
was at a conference last weekend in what was billed as "one of the top ten
|
|
hotels in the US". Certainly it was nice not having to pay for the room.
|
|
<grin> Anyway, while I was waiting for the shuttle to the airport to arrive,
|
|
I stood out front of the hotel, in the sort of "public square" arrangement
|
|
they have there, admiring the fountain one last time. It has three
|
|
hippocampuses (front half of a horse, rear half of a large fish - like a
|
|
horse mermaid) at the base, spurting water out of their mouths. Above that
|
|
were three mermaids, then three geese, and at the top a cherub holding a horn
|
|
with water pouring out of it.
|
|
|
|
The shuttle got there, and as I looked at the fountain for the last time, it
|
|
occurred to me that I would very much like to kiss the beautiful horsie on
|
|
the lips... One of the three was facing directly towards the main lobby
|
|
entrance - as I walked towards the shuttle, every few feet I'd stop and turn
|
|
around, looking at him and thinking about it a little more. At some point
|
|
the notion started changing from some idea I'd had that I could remember with
|
|
amusement later, into something to actually do... Nobody was very close, nor
|
|
really looking quite in that direction, although it was a very open area and
|
|
in broad daylight... And if anyone did notice, what would they do about it
|
|
other than being a bit startled? Nothing!
|
|
|
|
So I walked back to the fountain, and knelt carefully on the edge. Leaning
|
|
forward, I placed one hand on the side of his muzzle, and kissed the stone
|
|
horse briefly, as he spit fountain water into my mouth... I have to say I
|
|
would definitely have kissed him longer and more passionately had the
|
|
circumstances been more private - but hey, it was my first time! And I'm
|
|
glad I did it, too. :)
