Late september= 9 months and three weeks after New Years, which was confirmed by my parents when I really did not want to know about it.

I got started in the back of a 1938 Chevrolet, and my parents were married two months later. (shh, family secret)
Tell your sister Happy Birthday, Bluebottle!

Actually, I'm pretty much of an open book.
ANYWAY...(getting back on Trek)
*The elephants are gathered and the Preds remount and continue on their journey.*
I think I was asking if anyone would like a vt?

It wasn't 1938 when your parents were in the 1938 Chev, was it...?

Sure! We'll get one and then we can burn it together. How does that sound?

Do we really want to encourage him?

Kumabear Posted Sep 25, 2000
Absolutely! Since discouraging him seems to have the opposite effect.

Hmmmmm lets see here... We have a pyro that seems to be incorrigble and now we are giving him free reign to burn things? This seems like a Bad Thing to me. I could be wrong tho. I leave it to you, my assistant, to douse any blazes he caauses.

I am so angry right now with American tv coverage of the Olympics that I would enjoy burning sets in the streets as a protest of gross stupidity, crass commercialism, and insufferable bad taste. Other than that I won't encourage BB.

Bluebottle Posted Sep 25, 2000
You wouldn't encourage me????
Oh 
And I had high hope that we'd be able to burn things together....

marvthegrate LtG KEA Posted Sep 25, 2000
In as much as I agree with you on the olympic coverage (Save for the msnbc coverage wich is slightly better than the regular nbc coverage) Our dear pyromaniac might inadvertantly burn us all down !

*wakes up from her - at this point - three week long nap in a ery comfy chair on the back of the elephant*
As long as the TVs aren't being burned *on* the elephants, I can't see that it coul do any harm. Go right ahead.
*produces the mini-TV she's been using at work to watch the Olympics, agreeing completely on the state of the US coverage*
