ABRASION STATION #9

THE FRED FLINTSTONE ROLLING BOWLING ALLEY

As Fred Flintstone would say, “ST-EEE-RIKE!” and it was no accident he emphasized that “e”. Neanderthals hugging in Bedrock bowling alleys was, for many us, our first exposure to “grown-up” love in T.V. land. “YA-BA-DA-BA-DOO!” “Oh Fred, OUCH!” Did Fred just squeeze Wilma a little bit too tight? To some people rave parties are a “FREE-FOR-ALL!” of free love and free hugs, which they are. But what we are talking about here is not a question of ethics but evolution, candy-ravers vs. Cro-Magnons. Don’t go groping through an e-mound crowd like some neanderthal knocking into people like a granite bowling ball through a set of pins at the Bedrock Bowling Alley. This is a HIGH-time for HIGH-hugs for HIGHLY-evolved people, “SIGH!” There’s plenty of ‘em available too (people and hugs that is), and remember the hugs, like this event, are “free for all.”
