re: Ka-Boom

It wasn’t me, it wasn’t me! I didn’t do it! You can’t prove anything!

Hey, wait.

That crater will work _much_ better as a firepit! Now he has _two!_

Except we need more rocks…

Well, I guess the stains will come out eventually.

Let’s see, I’ll need heatproof glasses… oops. Guess that one wasn’t heatproof.  
I’m sure it wasn’t expensive. Wine, anyone? It’s part burgundy and part… I dunno, I just pulled a couple of bottles from his stash. Lemon juice and cloves and cinnamon, too.

Since we’ve got two pits now, I think we should roast a goat.

Hey, I picked up this painting just before I made my flight from New York–sort of a party gift. It’s a genuine “Marla Olmstead!” I’ll just hang it in the kitchen.

Movies should start pretty soon…who brough the movies? 😕

I got ROTK! Here you go…Not the extended version, though.

**Tigerkitty** , I’ll get the rocks. You just sit tight and toast your feet.

See, told you could do it!

Now who wants a Guinness and who wants a right proper 1420?

Uhmm **Inigo**? The back of your head is smoking.

I would love a Guinness thanks!

Thank you **Elenia28** , that fence almost killed me twice. The sections kept falling over when I removed the crossbeams.

I do like the way you filled in the post-holes. I don’t think the neighbors’ll even realize it’s gone.

Ah, now that \*\*is \*\* better. Thought that the goat I was smelling.

The goat sure smells good. Better be careful though, I thought I saw the neighbors’ German Shepard snooping around here earlier. Where’d the goat come from anyway?
