Hot dogs, apple pie, chicken bbq, potato salad, watermelon and all that great picnic food. And the fireworks at night !!

Gundark
It works on my screen.

Won't be getting drunk until evening. Drinking is a no-no on the wave runner.

yerssot

Its also my birthday tomorrow, although drinking in the midlands is hardly gonna be a patch on getting pissed in New York which is what I did last year when I turned 21. (hey mech, i'll probably be in Wolverhampton or Merry Hill, if there's gonna be a drink shortage it'll no doubt be there.) for all those with poor maths skills, that makes me 22 tomorrow as i head of into the sunny realms of majorca on the Friday. woohoo.

mechmoggy
I think we're going to the "Royal Oak" in Quinton SP#10, Merry Hell is a little too far to get back from when you're as pissed as I'm gonna get. Have one for me though eh?

Oh yes, and happy b'day. big grin

Billy The Kid
well.....congratulations to you too!

Be sure to be so drunk that you puke tomorrow.

We have a parade in my neighborhood every year for 4th of July. Whenever we do it we all wonder why no one is out there and then we realize that we are all in the parade.

sand person no. 10
I must say in New York last year I was a bit dissapointed with the celebrations, the fireworks at night were good but in the daytime it felt like a normal holiday or weekend day.
btw, i am now 22 and now pissed - excellent, btw i am going on a nine day bender and will come back sober in about a month.

LaurenE147
Talk about a major hangover.

Texas

finti

Raz
Yep, have a nice one!

Corran
Bastards, ruined all that good tea too.

LaurenE147
It was crappy tea and you know it.

Corran
What do you expect? we were not going to send the good stuff across the pond, we keep that ourselves.

Ushgarak
Bloody cheap tea it was, as well. People in Britain were crying out for tea that cheap!

finti
people in Britain are crying about most thingsbig grin

Captain REX
It was my parent's 15th aniversary yesterday. smile

Three cheers for the Red, White, and Blue...oh nevermind.

Hey Lance, come over to my house and we can blow up California! evil face

Texas
I went to Simon David and bought the last batch of red white & blue cupcakes!!!smokin'

I feel like a true patriot!!!smile

LaurenE147
I think we should blow up Hawaii. It'd be the easiest. It has all those volcanoes.

You know that there are secret service men monitoring this and tracking us down because they take everything so seriously now.

My doorbell just rang must be one of them now.

yerssot
the words "NO WAY" comes to mind...

Texas
Why would you want to blow up Hawaii? Besides being one of the most beautiful areas in the world, the people are soooooooo nice!!!

LaurenE147
I just got back from a fireworks show put on for free with free food and alternative entertainment. It was awesome. We had these 3-D glasses that makes the fireworks prism-like. The whole show cost thirty thousand dollars. And then they blew it up.

Captain REX
My Independence Day was SHIT!!! SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT SHIT!!!! sad mad sad mad sad

Texas
For a minute there I thought you said your IDay was shit!

Captain REX
I did. You're very keen Tex. roll eyes (sarcastic)

You've already read why it was shit in another thread, right Tex?

mah
I did see some americans here, but forgot to congratulate them, well well. happy b-lated b-day US

ToMacco
I got a really funky tan yesterday. Some places I failed to rub too much suntan lotion, and I got burned.

I look really goofy, like I've got rashes on me, or something.

Captain REX
I hate it when that happens. Sunburns suck. The only cool thing (for me anyway) is that when it goes away you have a great tan.

I had one all over my back and shoulders awhile ago. Tan tan tan tan tan!

LaurenE147
My skin is peeling from a sunburn on my arms from Gulf Shores.

ToMacco
I'm not peeling, yet.

LariCrai_Kenobi
O.o we lit off our own fireworks tonight LOL. WHICH is illegal in Maine O.o...... *sigh* Gotta love those relatives from Conetticut!

about the suinburn thing: I have been told that I loked like a ghost. I SWEAR! I TRY to tan, I can't tan, I can't burn, nothing! I look completely WHITE! I was told today, I was transparent -.-

Captin REX: YOu think yours was? My grandmother's in ICU....

ToMacco
Shit, no more bad news. I can't take it.sad

LaurenE147
Ouch. I hope she's okay

Happy Belated Birthday to the birthday folks.

Had a wonderful day at the park/beach on 4 July. fireworks display set to music at night. had to wait 2.5 hours to get out of the park, crowd estimated at 50-75,000 people, so traffic was frightful. rather wait and leave at the tail end, than sit IN traffic. rolling on floor laughing

Captain REX
I was really thinkin about the 4th of July (the day my grandfather died with a heart attack) and realized that presidents Thomas Jefferson and John Adams died on the same day as my grandpa (and vice versa).

Gundark
keo must not have read the previous page....

Lauren, I think you should know keo lives in Hawaii and I don't think she would appreciate being blown up. Just a little piece of advice....wink

LaurenE147
We'll ship her out first.

yerssot
if you mean, like in a box... big no no

Gundark
I think she's rather fond of her little volcanoes....

yerssot
you better watch yourself... she owns the police in twelve countries!

LaurenE147
Well, not in the US so she's out of luck.

Gundark
Especially since the US is comprised of states....wink

LaurenE147
And in Mississippi we don't even need the police. We just form a lynch mob. big grin

Gundark
How wude.

yerssot
what did you expact from her?

Captain REX
My uncle and aunt and cousin live on Hawaii too! I just remembered that! No no on the boom-boom!

What if the lynch mob is going after you Lauren?

yerssot
Shesa going to tha bosses, shesa in big doodoo this time!

Captain REX
I am the big bosses. stick out tongue

yerssot
sure you are... now get back in your cage

Captain REX
*squawk!* Rexxie wanna cracker! *whistles* *squawk!*

yerssot
you're being greedy again...

Captain REX
Yes, yes you are.

yerssot
now rex doesn't get a cracker nor any water...

LaurenE147
*gives Rex a sundae*

The mob won't go after me, silly boy. I'm a WASP.

But seriously in case you didn't get the sarcasm there are no lynch mobs anymore.

yerssot
a wasp?
*takes out insecticide*

LaurenE147
you know what I mean.

Oh, wait y'all are European. A WASP is a Wealthy Anglo Saxon Protestant.

yerssot
yeah yeah! that's what they all say when they see the insecticide

LaurenE147
Alright I surrender. I don't fell like being a ***** today.

yerssot
well, after you tasted this, you will never be one again... honestly evil face

LaurenE147
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

*gets in cage with Rex and starts to share the sundae*

yerssot
well, it will take her a few hours to realise it's a dummy

LaurenE147
*kisses Rex*
feels real to me

yerssot
a computerprogram? ha!

LaurenE147
Hey, whatever works.

yerssot
apparently... well, you won't find any real persons here...

Gundark
I always knew it to be interpreted as White Anglo Saxon Protestant.

Never heard Wealthy before. Ah, but then I'm just a stupid yankee.

Ushgarak
White does sound more likely, yeah. As in Dead White Male, I guess.

Gundark
That, or Lauren is putting out a quarterly financial statement for us.

Ushgarak
That would be pretty darn simple from my side of things. I doubt Lauren finds accoutancy thrilling, somehow.

Gundark
True. Just want to stay in the black of course.

Ushgarak
I really need an income.

Corran
You'd only go out and spend it all, what use would that be?

Ushgarak
Because then I would be poor AND I would have things!

Corran
Oh I see, good plan.

Ushgarak
Ah, but just a dream for now...

Tex
Do what I did! Get a credit card, go wild, declare bankruptcy!
Those collectors can kiss my ass!!!stick out tongue

Gundark
*makes note to bring Ush "things" along with the cupcakes in May 05.*

Ushgarak
You are a darling, Gundy...

LaurenE147
My brother told me it was "Wealthy". But then again this is my brother who told me when I was little that there were such things as carpet sharks that could eat me inside the house.

The utmost authority on managing your money correctly, Dave Ramsey, says that a credit card is the number one way to get in debt. Never get one. That's why I have a check card.

Ushgarak
When I was small my brother used to tell me that the tennis matches we saw on tv were so live that we were seeing them before they happened.

LaurenE147
My brothers told me that there was no Santa Clause! Can you believe that? Some people are so cynical.

Ushgarak
Oh, I think older siblings do THAT all the time!

I seem to remember him coming up with a very long and extended story about why the sea is salty, as well.

LaurenE147
I think your brother is more creative than mine. A lot of the time this kind of stuff will come from my parents. I'm the most gullible person in the family and they play tricks on me all the time. Like throwing rubber cockroaches on me. And telling me that Frddy Kruger was behind me or something like that.

Ushgarak
I remember, he told me about these huge chinese salt ships that sank a few thousand years ago. I went and told my teacher about it the next say, as well. Sigh...

Older siblings are so cruel...

LaurenE147
laughing out loud

Everybody is so gullible when they are a kid. They don't know any better.

Tex
I used to tell my little brother that there were roach eggs growing in his head that that they were going to hatch and chew through his head!!

Then for some strange reason he would always start to cryconfused

Ushgarak
Weird!

LaurenE147
I wonder why that would make him cryconfused

phinney6
I remember when my Bro used to do those things to me

LaurenE147
Why couldn't I have had a big sister. Why couldn't I have had a big sister instead of that?

Oh, wait! I'm getting a big sister.

Captain REX
Here Lauren, you can have the rest of the Sundae...

*spills it on Lauren*

Oops! I guess I'll have to eat it now! evil face wink

yerssot
ah, Nightmare on Elmstreet, one of the good comedies

Gundark
My sister told her one daughter that there was a giant machine out in the middle of the ocean that made the waves on the beach. So my niece is looking way off to the horizon and saying, "really ?" She believed her !!! And my niece was like 20 at the time !! What an idiot !!

laughing out loud

finti
had to be a yank roll eyes (sarcastic) big grin cool

phinney6
Your niece is kinda... dumb. LOL j/k

So how has everyone been?

finti
cant complain....yetbig grin

Corran
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.........

Gundark
On that lovely note....since the 4th of July is over...

Closing.
