Healthy competition

I have a friend who is blind. This is and of itself is not that big of a deal. My father was a Special Education teacher while I was growing up. He has since retired from the noble profession, but I have spent a lot of time with people with different handicaps. I never really thought about my buddy being disabled and I don't treat him that way.

We have many spirited debates about the different aspects of life. Most of these debates revolved around sex. I have heard complaints from him that he does not get it enough from his wife to which I fired back that he wants it 5 or 6 times a day and the poor woman would be walking with a permanent limp. I also know he cares about his wife, but I also tell him that his ideal woman is someone upright and breathing. He huffed about this to which I corrected myself and said, "I'm sorry, I forgot, they don't need to be upright." He called me a nut for this.

He is also an avid Wii player. He is pretty good at it. When I say, I beat him 3 times out of 5, it's true. He is good but not as good as me, but then again I cheat. Think what you will, I will cheat to win even with a blind guy. He has had a Wii for quite some time and he told me that he and his wife would play naked Wii sports from time to time. When I told him that I had purchased a Wii as well, he said, "You going to play naked Wii sports?" "NO!" I said, "Not with you." He chuckled and said, "Not with you goof." and before he could finish his sentence, I interrupted him and said, "I don't think my wife will want to play with you either." He told me to shut up and and go away.
