mine was last night.

3 of my best friends and i were at this public park last night. my car was next to his, they smoked a cigarette and we left to play in the park. we spent about 45 minutes to an hour swinging, climbing on jungle gyms, going through the trails...just having a good time. we walk back and my friend jessica goes "david, your car's on fire." and i look over and his car is glowing orange. i thought he just left his interior light on for a second, then i see the flames moving. the guys run over to it, try to put it out, start grabbing shit out of the trunk so try and save it and me and jessica are SCREAMING at them to get back. as soon as they run back a few feet, the back winshield BUSTS open and we run further away and i call emergency. they send a firetruck over and it takes them 15 minutes to get there...all the while i'm waiting for his car to explode and catch MINE on fire, too, which is parked RIGHT NEXT to his. every now and then as we waited for the firetrucks, there is a pop of another winshield. there is so much smoke and we're all flipping out. my friend (whose car it was) is in tears, i'm trying to comfort him, we're all calling our parents and freaking out. the fire truck gets there and they put it all out, and inspect my car with a flashlight to see if there's any damage. miraculously, my car is 100% fine. not even melted paint. smoke POURED over my car constantly for like 15-20 minutes, but no damage. my friend's car, however, is DEMOLISHED. completely burned. he salvaged some stuff when he got stuff out of his trunk but he lost a bunch of clothes, his driver's license, his cellphone, his social security card, all of his school shit, all of his work shit, his paycheck, his boots, his CDs, his cigarettes, a blanket...so much shit...just gone. he saved a hubcap which he then mounted on his wall today. the whole time we were watching his car burn. we kept expecting it to explode like cars do in movies, but he had an empty tank almost, so we were really lucky. everyone who was there is fine, but david lost everything. it was definately the craziest, most surreal and unexpected thing to EVER happen to me.

what about y'all?

edit:
this happend a long time ago, i was probably 13 or so.. We were at my beachouse, family only, and i remember they were repainting the house so there were alot of workers there. The property is on top of some caverns so you cant just walk straight to the beach. You could jump down to the ocean but you would hit a rock and die. Anyways, i remember one of the painters went down to was his face and a wave came up and pulled him in. He wouldnt ocme out so they called emergency and sent a chopper to look for him. No one could go down after him, since it was a high tide and you would get smashed by the waves agaisnt rocks. So like 30 minutes later or something i cant even remember they manage to pull the body out. All covered in purplish blood. That was the first time i saw a fresh dead body.

That happened to my friend's car in high school it was bad wiring. It burned down to the frame while everyone watched.

At work we hired jack-of-all-trades illegal immigrant to build a new office from the ground up who had the craziest stories from his 30+ years living and traveling on the US-Mexico border...from Texas to California. I literally wanted to write them down and make a book they were awesome.

Anything from pot, beer, drugs, to women, fights, GTA, arson, you name it, he's done it. God he was an amazing storyteller too he made me realize just how little I've experienced in my 22 years of living. heh.

I sure miss him...I often wonder were he is.

I saw a machete fight one time....I was about 11-13yrs old

I wanted to see blood {remember I was still imature}. There was no blood but a whole lot of fighting. I was waiting for the cop sirens but there was no cops. Five minutes later it all finished and everyone that was staring just moved right along.

what's the craziest, most insane thing that's ever happened to you?

5 years ago...I ate a ten strip, drank a half gallon of orange juice. And....yeah things got craziest and most insane then went back to normal after 17 hours.

I stayed in a Psych ward on the 7th floor for about 4 days, and met some weird ass people there. It was a good time.

Every weekend while in Germany was a crazy weekend. Sleep deprived, under nourished, fucked up! Just plain nutty.

Back in high school i wanted to be a professional bull rider so i started going to rodeos and shit
so i entered into alot the armature bull riding shows did somewhat good for awhile till a bull stepped on my shoulder then i called it quits


have respect for all the men and woman of that sport
takes some balls to get on a animal like that.




oh yeah in case ya didnt know they tie the bulls ball together to make it buck

damn....sounds liek my week at WMC. I wanna go to Germany..

The craziest, and yes stupidest thing i ever did was this: (and please feel free to call me a dumb ass....I deserve it for this one)

It was New Years Eve and I still lived in Katy, Texas with my dad. Still today, my brother and I are major fanatics of fireworks, despite what happened on the night of the countdown on December 31st.

I had built a 4 foot rocket to light off on this day. Having my dad as an NCA licensed rocketeer (my dad used to professionally make rockets) I decided to buy an M Rocket Engine ($80) This is not your typical A, B, C, and D rocket engine like they sell at WalMart for those little kiddy rockets. These rockets, according to my dad, can lift a person with the kind of thrust power it carries.

Well, that having said by my dad, I had been thoroughly thinking about sitting on the rocket while it takes off. I had finished the wiring and safety harnesses for the rocket, and prepared it by mounting it on a custom made, steel-welded frame that I put together for it for the night.

I'm watching MTV, live in Times Square as they begin to countdown. My heart races as the time got closer to the new year. My dads having some Bacardi and coke, my mom gets the champange glasses and cleans them out for the celebration. Then I turn to ABC 13, as they are counting down the time (an hour after the NY countdown of course). I go outside and prepare the gearbox, spring-tensioner, electronics, and wires. Everything wired ready to go.

I had four shots of Bacardi 151 and four Corona Extras before I went outside for the thorough inspection of the rocket.

10.....9.....8.......7.....6......5........4

at about three seconds, my dumb ass decides to sit on the fucking rocket, having the cone taken off seconds before the lift off since the main wiring lies inches from the top inside the tube, which I was required to remove for the final inspection.

My dad's car, a 2003 Lexus SC400 by the way, was parked maybe 30 feet from the launch pad.

3.....2.......1.......HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

I give my brother the signal to activate the switch and press the button. He does as told.

The rocket lifted me up about 10 feet into the air. I fell from the rocket and hit and broke one of the supporting wings with my shoe, which caused the rocket to go haywire since there was no weight supporting the third angle (or third side). I fell down and sprang my ankle, cut my arm with the corner of the launching frame.

The rocket went straight for the Lexus. I ran like a little loud bitch thinking if my dad heard the rocket hit his car, I would be ashes tomorrow morning.

It happens to be that the rocket went through my dads back window, and out the windshield at approx. 93mph (essential speed of the rocket engine after two seconds of ingnition), leaving burn marks on top of the seats and headrests (leather). The alarm goes off and my dad comes running out to find his car smoking from the side windows.

What was weird was that my neighbors were screaming at me since they had watched the whole thing from the start. Then my dad comes out with an empty wine bottle in his hand.

I wont say what happened after that, since I am embarrassed already about the whole thing. To sum it up, I got my car taken away for a year (no car first year of college), and got my debit cards cancelled at once, which meant no beer, no liquor, no hosting parties, and no weed at UT!!

That really fucking sucked, but thats what I get for sitting on a 250lbs thrust powered rocket engine and busting my dads Lex. Thats the craziest thing I ever done, AND THE STUPIDEST!!!!!

CHILDREN: DONT TRY THIS AT HOME!!

Ok, now time for the insults!! Post away TA's!!

PEACE!
