How many people were present?
Did not one of them say, 'this might be a bad idea'?
I cant speak for him and I am not saying it was a wise decision, but he was using tannerite and as I understand it tannerite is considered relatively safe and under normal circumstances would not have caused a fire.
That area is the setting for a book I’m writing.
A lot of people say things they shouldn’t. Thank you for the difficult work you do on the border.
This has zip to do about his job. I was in fedgov too and i know if he had the right connections he’d be protected.
jack assery is just natures way of thinning the herd
Sadly the part that is thinned is often the part that had nothing to do with it.
The bonfire was all fun and games until someone’s wiener gets burned.
...When the judge asked Cash why he did it, Cash said, “I didn’t do it, my truck did, and it’s dead, so you can’t question it.” The fire destroyed 508 acres (206 ha), burning the foliage off three mountains and driving off forty-nine of the refuge’s 53 endangered condors. In June 1965, his camper caught fire during a fishing trip with his nephew Damon Fielder in Los Padres National Forest in California, triggering a forest fire that burnt several hundred acres and nearly killed Cash. Cash claimed that the fire was caused by sparks from a defective exhaust system on his camper, but Fielder thinks that Cash started a fire to stay warm and in his drugged condition failed to notice the fire getting out of control.
Cash was unrepentant and claimed, “I don’t care about your damn yellow buzzards.” The federal government sued him and was awarded $125,172 ($939,914 in 2016 dollars). Cash eventually settled the case and paid $82,001.He said he was the only person ever sued by the government for starting a forest fire.
>>why would this man do such a stupid silly thing...
because “internet”
if there was no place to put the video to be shared, it wouldn’t be a “thing”
No; it’s a demonstration of poor character. Humans are not animals that run on instinct; we’re expected to build character.
The gender reveal was his baby’s gender, not his. His wife was pregnant.
“Gender-reveal?” That’s weird and creepy terminology. It’s sex, not gender. And no, a party about it is not necessary. And we don’t want to know about it.
“Gender” is for Latin languages and plants. Linguistic activists are creepy, too, by the way. Get the feminists out of university English departments, and we’ll see dictionaries fixed in the future.
Back in the good old days, sex reveal parties took place in the delivery room.
“Back in the good old days, sex reveal parties took place in the delivery room.”
The way it should be done.
I’ve never really been interested in Tannerite, but I may have to stock up before it’s banned. I think that’s not too far off.
Ban gender reveal parties.
If you only look at the second half of the definition of the term, that's true.
My son did his gender reveal the same way two weeks ago. He used a pound of tannerite and a pumpkin for a container. We did it in a green, wet yard where there was no fire danger.
Looks like that guy had 5 pounds or more in a tinder box.
