Trent Osborn: Skiing or “She-ing”? Pt. 2

Today, Trent finds himself on the Universal Studios lot with a 1960’s vintage image as his backdrop. The rest of the storycard:

However, I did make an appearance today on the slopes, dressed in my finest ski togs. Needless to say, the snow bunnies came hopping over, eager to share a t-bar with yours truly. But I declined each and every one of their pleas—that nasty ol’ football injury flaring up again, don’t you know. But I did make a few appointments to see them after their day of schussing for a quiet cocoa by the hearth. Then I went over and settled myself into a comfy snowbank to await a friendly St. Bernard and his equally friendly brandy cask. Ah, the great outdoors…

Now I bask in the warmth of my companions for the evening, here in the comfort of the lodge, listening attentively to the daily report. You see, you may call this recreation “skiing”—but I, my friend, prefer to pronounce it “she-ing”—see what I mean?

Trent Osborn: Skiing or “She-ing”?

Sorry for the lack of posts lately; a trip to Orlando has put me behind, but I promise to be more regular! In response to my recent poll of who my readers want to see more of, here’s a shot of Trent Osborn wearing his “Skiing or ‘She-ing’?” ensemble, designed by Frank Ingenito. Trent is a blond here; I think he looks more at home with darker locks, don’t you? From the storycard:

1948. All right. Level with me. Whose idea was this in the first place?

Who ever decided that strapping two barrel slats on your boots and zipping down the mountainside at ungodly speeds in sub-zero weather was fun?

Not I! Oh, perhaps in my more foolhard days…

But here I am, in a little chalet in St. Moritz, lounging in front of the fire surrounded by enthusiasts from all over the world, ready to eagerly hurl themselves down the mountain to nearly certain bone breakage and freezing behinds.
