 Posted: 08/07/03 - 11:32 Post subject: Mailbox baseball is so 20th century, the new sport of choice
in RT is blow up the mail box!
So far two reports today. I guess blowing them up is more fun then just driving by and whacking with a baseball bat.
Oh well Alan and Greg, we need to come up with a new game now.
Just wait until one of these cherubs blows a digit or two off their hands.

Is it even worthwhile to call that kind of stuff in? I buy the $3.99 mailboxes and end up replacing it about once a year. If not mailbox baseball, the snowplow driver is good for zippin' it off too.

 I can't stop laughing!
In the Big Bad City we have a mailslot. Goes right into the house; very convenient for when we are vacations.

We used to play "Pooky Bear" where we would tie a teddy bear to the end of a fishing pole and reel it across the road when cars drove by.
Sometimes, the rednecks would stop, then another dude would jump out of the woods from the other side of the road with a big green sleeping bag over his head yelling "I'm Gumby Dammit, I'm Gumby!"
I lived in rural America, so this was our only entertainment.
This one time, at bandcamp, we played Friday the 13th where on a Friday the 13th, we dressed up like Jason, Freddy Kruger, and Leatherface and knocked on people's doors to wish them Happy Holidays.
This one ended with the Sheriff's department. Apparently, one lady was going to shoot us but her daughter said it was probably just us. The Sheriff drove us to his house and made us scare his wife first, then he took us home and made us promise not to do that anymore.
The joys of growing up in a 1 street light town.

I'm not sure why you don't have your own reality show.
