And I&#8217;ve arrived at Cool Runnings       with at least an hour to spare before the monthly BDSM moot convenes. This       month, they&#8217;ll be talking about the sadistic art of spanking, something       Karen tells me I&#8217;m pretty good at. I&#8217;m keen to learn more.<\/p>\n<p>I order a Tab with extra lemon, and I go and sit out on the balcony,       ready to greet my fellow perverts as they arrive for the moot.<\/p>\n<p>I get lost checking email on my palmtop computer, and a quarter hour       has passed. I notice that I&#8217;m absent-mindedly tapping the table with the       flat of my hand. Getting in some practice.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, my Tab arrives. The waitress doesn&#8217;t apologise for its       lateness.<\/p>\n<p>I answer a call, send an email, and it&#8217;s 7:30. Odd that no fierce       dominants and subservient submissives have arrived by now. <\/p>\n<p>I call MMM. &#8220;Hey,&#8221; I say, adding his real name as a matter of       courtesy, &#8220;is tonight moot night?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Nah. It&#8217;s next week.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I hang around for another half hour, wondering if the waitress is       avoiding me. Maybe she&#8217;s into BDSM? Maybe she&#8217;s trying to provoke me into       giving her a good spanking?<\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">Roy Blumenthal is a writer, director, artist, and <a href=\"http:\/\/snipurl.com\/visualfacilitator\">visual facilitator<\/a>.
