Dan is a construction worker and Mel is the curator of a small art gallery. Dan was putting it a ceiling in his rumpus room, and the three of us were heading to a lumber yard in Dan's truck to pick up the material we needed. Dan pointed out the tan lines on the buttock of a girl wearing a pair of red jogging shorts, and said that he thought that it was very sexy. Mel pointed out that this was probably because the exposed tan line was a symbol of the transition from casual to intimate knowledge of a person; to put it another way, it represented entry (visual, at least) into the ``forbidden zone''. Dan said whatever it was sure made him horny. These are the sorts of conversations you have, driving around Regina, Saskatchewan with a construction worker and the curator of a small art gallery.
