come on baby, light my fire

jemo left a desk at our apartment that david tried to re-assemble and utilize so that it wouldn't just sit in the corner like an idiot. this effort, as you might have predicted, failed miserably.

so we decided to burn the damn thing.

david thought that we should burn something else while at it. then marshmallow was suggested, along with sausage, pizza, and hence, a bonfire.

spontaneity is a wonderful thing. at 2230 tonight we took off to la jolla shores with jemo's broken desk parts, cardboard boxes, two starter logs, two bags of marshmallows, skewers, sausages, a box of large frozen pizza, water bottles, and a box of heavy duty aluminum foil.

we started a fire:



and cooked some sausages.





we knew that burning cardboard boxes to keep the fire going was not quite a good idea, but we still did it anyway because it's fun to burn cardboard boxes. the result: cardboard ashes on the sausages, which david tried to brush off his.



i had some on mine as well, but i ate it anyway. was not a good idea, but they all taste like sand, so it didn't really matter much.

flame turned purple for some reason, and no, this was not photoshopped.









the fire got out of control because david kept feeding it, which was a good thing because big fires are cool, and it was really cold.





did i mention pizza? yes i did. we wrapped that sucker with ten layers of aluminum foil and tossed it in the fire at the very beginning of the bonfire. about 1.5 hours later, this is what became of it:



sam devised an aluminum glove that he used to grab the pizza out of the fire. we got it to a safe place and started opening it. felt like opening a christmas present, except that it was burning hot.



about four layers of the aluminum foil were still intact, but nonetheless the pizza turned into charcoal. i could draw mike slackenerney with the leftover.



we eventually found that inside the ugly piece of shit that was the pizza, there were some parts of it that were still, well, pizza. we peeled off the charcoal layer and we found some chicken,



which tasted like potpie, seasoned with charcoal and carcinogen. still good, though.

i love my digital camera and typical college students stupidity. if you think highschool kids are stupid, try college students. we are just about as stupid, but we are more destructive and we make better excuses to get away from the consequences.

oh, and david ran a red light today. it was great to hear cars honking and pedestrians screaming because they thought they were gonna get run over by his huge truck.

we should do this more often. stupidity at its finest.
