I wonder if we're finally scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to society and what people are willing to do for attention online. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...fire/13937239/ So, can some of you facebook people fill me in on why people are setting themselves on fire? My God people are idiots.
I've tried to light a fart when I was younger
Also once poured water on a dude and convinced him it was gasoline and started flicking matches at him.
Does that count?

I once shot my brother in the foot with a BB gun while trying to convince him it wouldn't hurt while he was backing away. Though now that I think about it, maybe that makes him the stupid one for not running when he had the chance. Hm.

The bottle rocket wars were the best though. The old school plastic ones that would whistle. Those suckers would hurt.

Whew! Close one!
(AP) — Three trapped firefighters had to deploy their personal fire shelters as a rapid wind shift sent a Northern California wildfire burning over their location Monday, authorities said. All three survived with no serious injuries.
The firefighters had created a predetermined safety zone earlier in the day and retreated there when the fire worsened about 5:30 p.m. Monday, Beaver Fire spokesman Corey Wilford said. Still, the flames burned over their location. A thunderstorm produced winds as high as 35 mph, causing extreme fire behavior.

Superheated steam + cold water = an amazing display of energy. Still never get used to warming up a cold dead ended steam line. 16" pipe jumping a foot off the supports. Violent, scary, but completely amazing. Scared the bejesus out of some brand new little engineer. Guess they didn't learn about that in college.

A mother and her young son were flying Southwest Airlines from Kansas City to Chicago.
The little boy, who had been looking out the window, turned to his mother and asked,
"If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?"
The mother, who couldn't think of an answer, told her son to ask the flight attendant.
So the boy went down the aisle and asked the flight attendant,
"If big dogs have baby dogs and big cats have baby cats, why don't big planes have baby planes?"
The busy flight attendant smiled and said, "Did your mother tell you to ask me?"
The boy said, "Why, Yes, she did."
"Well then, you go and tell your mother that there are no baby planes because Southwest always pulls out on time.
Ask her to explain that to you."

I feel like I need a vacation from my vacation. I think we had too much stuff going on and I didn't get as much rest as I would have liked. But between two fishing trips, the beach, the pool, and on the boat for our Flyboarding trip.....at least I got a nice tan, lol. Oh, and I didn't break anything Flyboarding either. I wasn't very good at it this time but I'll do better next time
