THe ***OFFICIAL *** Weekend singles thread. (Apr. 21-23

OK, GUYS, LET'S S ROLL!!

I thought Maybe a good way to begin tonight's discussions would be for us to share about some of the best pranks and jokes that we either played on someone,(or someone played on us) when we were younger(or nowadays, for that matter)

Also, we could share about some of the crazy things we used to do, when we were younger(or perhaps still do) that were seen as fun at the time, but look foolhardy to us today.

I'll start things off, and share about one thing I did about 20 years or so ago, when I was 18-19. I would go on little "scenic routes" as I used to call them. (keep in mind that in 1986-87 gas was WAY less than $1.00 a gallon). Now, I did not just drive around aimlessly, but I had a friend named Paul with me. And Paul was a LOT more daring than I!! while I drove, Paul tossed bottles, cans, eggs and fireworks out of the car, mainly at road signs, but also at a few mailboxes. I egged him on, and thought it was a LOT of fun!! Paul conned me into believing that I was not doing anything wrong, since I was "just driving". (I just have to chalk that up to youthful stupidity...) In reality, I would had been the ONLY one to get into trouble had we been caught, because PAUL WAS ON HOUSE ARREST at the time, for a B&E that he and some others had been involved in , AND he was only 17!! SO, had we gotten caught,(and in early '87 we ALMOST did!!) I would had gotten the book thrown at me, for vandalism, littering, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and who knows what else!!

I'll reserve the stories about me messing with gunpowder, acid, gasoline,lighter fluid and fireworks for another time!!! (He....He... He..)

SO... Does anyone else care to share anything(that the statue of limitations has expired on !!) LOL!!

Security Troops in the Air Force were the worst on pranks.

One that I saw (Never participated :)) was breaking open a chemical lightstick on a nuke storage structure lock. When a newbie came along and shook the lock, he would have a glowing goo all over his hands.

His partner would immediately advise him that he was screwed and tell him to get his gas mask on ASAP. By the time everything was done, the newbie was waiting in the vehicle entrapment gate in his under pants, socks, boots and gas mask waiting for the fire dpeartment to come and decontaminate him with the firehose. This was all of course done during late fall.

LOL! Not quite as vulgar as I-95 through New Jersey, where I wouldn't recommend lighting a match (oil refineries and chemical plants abound). The I-95/Turnpike corridor in said state inspired my suggestion for the new New Jersey slogan: "Who farted"

A guy in my church blew off two of his fingers years ago.

He made little rockets by using spent CO2 cartridges. He would fill them up with matchheads and compress the matchheads using a nail and a hammer.

One day the thing blew up in his face as he was compressing matchheads. He lost the little finger and his ring finger down to the knuckle on the same hand.

I never got hurt. We used to shoot bottle rockets and Roman candles at each other. We used to do all kinds of crazy things...

I rented Monty Python's "And Now for Something Completely Different." That movie is hilarious. I love the Vocational Guidance Counselor skit. If you haven't seen it, the script is here: http://www.urielw.com/refs/montyvgc.htm

The best "prank" I ever pulled in the Air Force was I beat a guy at backgammon for $200. I let him "work off" the money he owed me, otherwise I would have gotten nothing. I was living in the barracks at the time.

I had him ironing my cloths and shining my shoes. Then I started hiring him out as my "house boy" to others. He got real mad...he was like my personal servant. Everyone in the barracks got a good laugh out of me having a house boy.

Thanks fo the tip. I haven't seen it.

I really liked "Quest for the Holy Grail". "Life of Brian" wasn't too bad either.

"Holy Grail" is the best one IMHO! I'm also fond of "The Meaning of Life."

Yeah, I've resorted to drive-by posting. It happens when life gets a bit busy.

Just exchanging prank stories. No drinking or dancing yet--I guess the night is young.
