It&#8217;s a ye olde shoppe devoted to exploration and education of delectation and tawdriness, and as far as I could tell when I hung around (stop it!) for a half-hour waiting for my friend to return to the store, its patrons seem delighted with the items on sale, and the knowledge for <em>gratis<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>So, if you&#8217;re in Kansas City and need something to help push your buttons (or someone else&#8217;s), take a stroll down to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.winkkc.com\/\" title=\"B.O.B.\" target=\"_blank\">Wink<\/a>, where you can squeal for delight at the great number of toys within, or do so with the help of a vibrator with, at last count, three motors and three million settings. (I might be off by a hundred.  And you think I&#8217;m joking&#8230;)<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the oils and other sybaritic delights peppered about the store, it was good to see Elizabeth again.  Over the years, long past graduation, we&#8217;ve run into each other a handful of times, and each meeting is always memorable and a hoot.  Elizabeth is definitely a one-of-a-kind, sweet gal whose presence always stirs up  a cheery and charming <em>je ne sais quoi.<\/em>  A fierce and dedicated compadre, it&#8217;s a delight to have known her this long, and I&#8217;ve little doubt that her little boy will grow up to reflect having such a groovy mom.  So, I hope her new pleasure pad of play serves both her and her customers well for years to, um&#8230; come.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, she&#8217;ll always be &#8220;Liz&#8221; to me.  That&#8217;s how I first new her, and how I remember her the best.  &#8220;Elizabeth&#8221; is a flow of fun syllables, no doubt, but &#8220;Liz&#8221; is a celebration of the zed, the omega of a seductive and serpentine dance all short and sweet.<\/p>\n<p>You know, like her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh, Rubber Ducky, you&#8217;re the one.
