You’ll never guess what weird thing turned me on today.

How Does Pat Morita Figure Into All This?

I’m not talking about an odd, fetish sort of thing …  like asking for a good hearty beating with a mackerel by someone completely wrapped in tinfoil.  No, I’m talking about something that I saw that got me aroused but shouldn’t have — or at least I never anticipated that it would.  Usually, it’s the sight of a bit more leg than usual on someone I find attractive or even mildly attractive.

Today … I got turned on by a Bonsai tree!

That’s right, one of those expensive miniature Japanese trees that are grown in containers and that dry out real easily and die.  So how did a miniature tree get me stimulated?  Here’s the only way I could figure it out. I saw this diminutive woody plant and it reminded me of “The Karate Kid”, staring Pat Morita as Mr. Miyagi. But do you remember who else was in that movie? Elisabeth Shue.  She was the cute girl next door and Ralph Macchio’s love interest.

Here’s where it gets interesting…  It takes me back to college, my freshman year and my girlfriend who happened to look just like Elisabeth Shue. We always ate at this little Japanese place in LA that was usually a precursor to nights of…  Well, I guess you know what I am getting at. So that stunted little tree on a coworker’s desk got me momentarily hot and bothered.
