Two More Shoppin Days
Rachel Corrie gets her revenge.
On a somewhat lighter note, I hit the Chehalis rez for explosives last evening. I've got a bunch of unsafe and insane fireworks. Their prices were outrageous. I'm used to the Coeur D'Alene stand which is huge, on the Chehalis they had bunches of very small stands, I'm guessing run by different families, with horrid prices. Oh well, some of the stuff I purchased looks like it could knock entire clans of bats out of the night sky.
The fourth fever is startin to get to me. I'm going back home tonight after work. There is only one question worth answerin each summer: Can I maintain my pyrotechnic superiority at the lake? Every year the others out on their docks come closer and closer. But I've remained alpha. This year I hope to keep the crown. I'll let you all know.
In the regatta last year on the fourth.
Hope you retain the title: Pyro King. Have a happy 4th!

Please don't shoot your eye out, (((((((Bob))))))). After Kevan, I can't handle anything bad happening to any more of my friends.
In answer to your question, the quality of your writing lately has been so superior, so majestic and sublime, that anything I might add would sound banal and nescient... and I dare not shout in the presence of gods... :) :) :)
Seriously, that, and I've had way too much of my mental real estate being rented up to form much of a good response to anything lately...

[warning: if watermelon effect lasts for more than 4 hours, please call your doctor, not the produce manager at Safeway]

Except Rachel Corrie wasn't innocently minding her own business. Why would she want revenge against little babies?
