14. Damn drunk teenagers.

That was scawy, vewy scawy.

[evlbstrd]

15. Did you hear their jokes?

Oh, you did. When they thought they could scare us off by being teenagers.

[proud2BlibKansan]

18. Fortunately, I was too blitzed last night to remember their jokes today

[evlbstrd]

19. They were very impressed with themselves.

I just didn't want them to burn me or blow me up.
It's like they're from another tribe.

3. Wow, you guys picked

a cold ass night to wage your war!

I thought about you while I was oh so cozy on a warm stage playing cartoon music.

Coulda used one of those beers.

Hope you had a great time.

[proud2BlibKansan]

7. It was even cold by that fire.

I think that was Jeezus's way of sending a message about our war on his birthday celebration.

There were also a bunch of drunk teenagers hanging out by the fire. One of them called me 'maaam' :grr:

They were throwing some kind of chemicals into the fire to make it spark up and explode. Evl and I looked at each other and headed back inside when they started that stuff. That is just taking the war on Christmas too far, IMO.

edit: typos!!

[evlbstrd]

20. You had to rotate at just the right distance from the fire.

A rotisserie, if you will.

[MuseRider]

21. Like great big

marshmallows? LOL, wish I could have been there.

[evlbstrd]

25. More like weiners, I think.

24. haha memories!!

I think it was the few weeks after Christmas me and my paw always looked forward to. In rural Georgia we would burn some of our trash in a 52 galleon barrel. My dad had it down to a science, even figured on putting some holes in the bottom of the barrel to let air in.

Boy I tell you when we would put that tree in the barrel and light it up, made the barrel sound like a jet engine with all the air it would suck lol.

26. Can you e-mail this to my neighbor?

He still has his tree out on his front lawn. :P
