“GO!”

Stetsons flew past Ray. The sound of their collision with the wall followed the shhhrack of Velcro and the thwip of bootlaces being yanked through grommets.

Whoa, Ray thought, the Mounties must be rubbing off on me. Ah ha ha ha. No, but really, when the hell did I learn the word “grommet”?

Meanwhile, boot heels thudded against hardwood. Buckles jingled softly. Zippers purred. Cloth rustled.

“Time!” shouted Turnbull, raising his hands above his head.

“Drat,” muttered Fraser, his thumbs tucked behind his boxers’ waistband.

Ray looked at the stopwatch. “Forty-nine seconds. A new record. Ready for your prize?”

Hee! Now that's a challenge I can get behind...err...so to speak.

Behind, in front...it’s a tough call, innit?

No, but really, when the hell did I learn the word “grommet”?
This cracked me up.

Thanks! I liked that line too, especially since I’m not entirely sure where I learned the word grommet. I think it might have been from the film The Great Race but I’m not positive.

Thanks! I think the ruthless pruning paid off.

Well, it works for bonsai...

Oh, I love that. Flashbacks to Asylum and Fraser's striptease and Turnbull in his scivvies. Great fun and well done.

Astoundingly enough, I completely failed to notice the echoes of “Asylum” until you pointed them out.

I want to know how Ray finagled them into this. And I'm guessing that the loser is the prize. ::EG::
