this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

The main reason Pete has to either be distracted or not in the house when I try this is that I'm pretty sure I'll end up with a flaming marshmallow onna stick, and Pete knows that my instinctual reaction, when holding anything flaming onna stick, is to spin around and go "Wheeeeee!"

I know what would stop that reaction: your first burn scar from airborne molten flaming marshmallow. Just say no to spinning with flamey things.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, but you can also get a burn scar from a poptart. Would you rather live a life of quiet desperation, or spin with flamey things?

But but but ... sparklers! You're supposed to spin around if you're holding sparklers in your outstreched hands. It's one of the laws of the universe.

You know what? If you have a PDA set to give audible alerts so you won't forget something, it is only going to work if you are physically near the PDA.

My officemate's pda is stuttering out uh-ohs. And he's not here.

I wonder if it would scream if I threw it out the window?

The status is NOT quo.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Nonsense. You're supposed to race your brother around the house (in bare feet, of course), trying to get all the way around before the sparkler goes out. Bonus points if you manage to trip your brother so that he's sure to lose.

Well, I don't really camp, so it's probably for the best that you take it off your list.

We've got a really big back yard which is ideal for spinning around with sparklers in.
