I have to admit I made my share of mischief.

I think I was as surprised as my parents that any of us survived my childhood.

It was easier to get gum out of, and I don't remember anyone coming home with head lice as a kid.

Why Nipples, aren't you a happy camper!

I don't feel like drinking, I just want some company.

hiya buckethead. You may or may not be interested to know that my laundry pile is dwindling down to managable proportions, and christmas is history at my house.

Aha, very good news, Giggs. I myself took the remnants of Xmas and such to the dump this morning. Quite the project, let me tell you. Laundry is another story altogether.

Afternoon, all... I have been doing Mimosa's for about an hour or two, and I am warm and cozy... by the way, what is the proportion for a Mimosa... ten parts champagne to 1/2 part of orange juice, right? And then empty the bottle? I don't remember... Actually, I don't think I ever knew...

Hey, BHA... how many trees did you have at Xmas if you always keep two or three in reserve to burn... Just curious...

Snorty One... If you need help with that laundry, let me know... I hate it when mine piles up and I am always throwing something in the washer... whether I need to or not...

I think that Bushmills is in my sock.

I just got my FIRST Xmas tree ever this year. However, I scoop up a couple from the roadside to stockpile for the fun later. Last time, I lost a tree off the back of my truck while on my way to the burn.

So check out the Burning Squid's next big concept: a furniture burn!

Good way to get rid off that chair or dresser you've been meaning to fix but never got around to. Everybody shows up with some item or other and we set it up in a freaky tableau, douse it with the gasoline and kawoooosh!

The other thing the Burning Squid brain trust was talking about on New Year's Day was building a large, articulated squid to torch around the summer solstice.

Hell yeah. Freak all those squid-lovers right out, that would.

I received the email below before the first squiddy burn:
From: [email protected]
Subject: Squid Burning!
Date: September 3, 2004 3:27:20 PM EDT
To: [email protected]
Cc: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]

To whom it may concern,
I stumbled upon your squid burning event and was horrified by the thought! Our group has worked long and hard to keep people from misunderstanding these lovable (in more ways then one) cuddly creatures. An event like this can undermine the years of effort we have put into our cause. Our foundation site is not up yet but there is lots of information available online, please search CEPHALOPOD or just SQUID in google to learn more about the creature you are about to burn!

I implore you to reconsider what you are doing.

My first Bushmills: age ten, from my dad and Uncle Ralph. They thought I'd hate it (I did)... forever (not a fucking chance in Hell).

When I was a kid growing up in a village called Columbia, we used to burn a sofa in the middle of town every Halloween. My dad was deputy sheriff. He asked me to keep an eye on the town that night (I was fifteen, I think). At midnight, I helped to drag the sofa into the intersection and douse it with gas. I helped torch it. I watched my dad drive up about three minutes later. Next morning: "Do you know anyting about that sofa last night?" "Nope. I was home in bed by then"...

Yeah, furniture burn... I'm there, Brother...

I'm almost between jobs, BH, or I'd be there in a heartbeat.... a burning sofa in the middle of Times Square somehow appeals to my sense of mischief.... or cacophany... or rebellion... or something....

Burn one for me ... I'll burn one here...

I used to know some guys who occassionally burned cars in Brooklyn when they were wasted. These were the same guys who would bust woodies whenever they could obtain the use of a motor vehicle of their own because it meant that they could cruise the meatpacking district for hooker blowjobs. I don't talk to these folks much anymore.

Other than the fact that he's attached to you most of the time, is there anything unusual about Woodrow?
