Not a ping.....
Now that’s funny, metmom.
Yikes!
I completely understand her frustrations. We always dreaded 4th of July and New Year’s Eve. Loved it when it rained those days...
Don’t tell me. Local law enforcement officials do not believe terrorism was involved at this time. Ever been hit with a flaming dirty diaper?
“As of this morning several bottles of wine, fresh fruit, and pastries have been set outside Orsborn’s house. Neighbors additionally tell us the men in question have spent much of the morning quietly washing Orsborn’s car, weeding her flowers beds, and pruning her rose bushes while their wives and girlfriends watch from across the street.”
Saw this and thought - “must be in the Midwest”.
Arkansas. Love it.
Classic!
I know where she is coming from. Fireworks were legalized in our city limits recently. The people around here start at 10:30-11 and don’t stop until 4 in the morning. They have been doing these for weeks, including weekdays, when people have to work the next day. My husband wants to know why kids are being expelled or suspended when they draw a picture of a gun or wear the wrong t-shirt.... yet these same kids can buy/and or set off powerful fireworks. They can start fires and hurt others with them. My poor silky Luci Belle, is so scared she won’t come out from under the bed. I hate fireworks and really hate to see people who can’t afford it, spend hundreds on these and have nothing to show for it but sometimes skin burns or worse.
Earnie?
The Flaming Diapers will be performing at the next Emo Fest
I’m on the mom’s side. Here in Illinois and Missouri, the hoosiers have a fireworks fetish. They start drinking and shooting off fireworks not caring on whose property they land. Alcohol/drugs, hoosiers, and fireworks don’t mix..
Kind of a shame it’s satire.
Great balls of ....
Wow. I did not see that one coming. Maybe there is hope after all.
OK. I thought everything was hopeless. That our country was down the tubes. I guess there is at least one neighborhood where they still repent their sins and make things whole again.
Thanks for posting the article. Whoever the author is (Greg), he writes very well.
I went into the article expecting dark clouds, and instead found joy and clear skies.
Talc + “Baby Residue” == Bunpowder
I too would get a little cranky changing the diapers on twins.
Those guys were ****faced.
Loved the laugh for the day!!
I live in Southern California and we’ve been “celebrating” the 4th for about three weeks now. Some idiots came by in a car and were throwing bottle rockets out the window — I think one was thrown at me and my dog when I was out walking, they were moving too fast for me to get a license or make on the car. I could hear bottle rockets being thrown up the street. Everything here is dry as a bone and there is a huge danger of wildfires (I live in the foothills).
I have been hearing piccolo petes for at least two weeks too — no gunfire, yet — they save that for New Years.
