When I was eight years old there was an old couple in their late 50's who lived down the block from me. They were brother and sister,had a year long yard sale,and slept in the same bedroom.
During that summer my dad bought an army tent,set it up on our front lawn for my brother,myself and our friends to camp out.
We were always pulling pranks on the surrounding neighborhoods. I made the suggestion one night that we should go to the local pond and collect some toads and take them to the yard sale couple.We filled several large shopping bags with the toads and snucked up to their house.
There was a mail slot that went straight into their bedroom.We carefully opened the mail slot and we slowly put all of the toads inside. We walked across the street and sat down on the curb to see what would happen. It was quiet at first,then a toad started croaking,before long they were all croaking.
A few minuets later we heard a loud female scream. We ran back to our house and hid in the tent. Ten minuets later we watched a Fire Truck,Ambulance and two Police cars heading down the street. It took them about an hour to clear the house out. Then we watched the Fire Truck,Ambulance and Police cars all cruse by laughing their asses off and waving as they drove by.
We all thought we were in deep Shakespeare when they showed up at the neighbors. In the mourning nothing happend to us. Years later I asked my mom about it and she knew nothing about it. She did however think it was funny.

My older sister on a rush to go out and party one night knocked over my bird cage. Seeds, bird crap, water, the works and I was made to clean it up.Soooooooooo, I decided when my sister rolled in that night, loaded and ready to sleep, she'd have a suprise. I took bird seed and filled her bed layer by layer, even in her pillowcase. I can still remember the scream and she promptly pulled a sheet full of it and dumped it on top of me. She still admits to this day that it was the best I ever got her.



















Oh, that and making fake peni and putting them all over her beloved Duran Duran posters.

If this thread was a bus, it would seat 12 with space left over for a couple of wheelchairs.

That was brilliant!!

A friend told me about some high school kids who turned three goats loose in their school after painting numbers on them: 1, 2, and 4. School administrators spents hours looking for #3.

I used to do little things to the kids in the neighbourhood, almost all of whom were older than I but extremely gullible. Once I made a bunch of tiny water balloons with odd-coloured balloons I'd found somewhere, and I cut the tied ends off to look a bit like umbilical cords. I put them in an old aquarium in my yard and sold them as spineless sea urchins.

They went for maybe 5 cents apiece and I sent them home in margarine tubs with water and verbal instructions. I don't know how long they "lived" but not one person came back to complain. I was about 6 at the time...don't know how I got away with it.

Later on that summer I had to clean up all of th dog poop in the yard.My best friend showed up as I was cleaning and said we should put it in a large Brown grocery bag and set it on fire on someones porch,I said no lets turn it into a grab bag.
So I folded the top of the bag shut,stapled it closed,wrote on it(Grab Bag 25cents-Surprise-Surprise-The Surprise is whats Inside).He asked,what are we going to do with it now.
I told him lets go visit the neighbors with the yard sale. OK. When we got there the sister was outside putting stuff into the house for the night. While he got her attention,I snuck up behind her and put the grab bag on the table.
I was able to get around her without her seeing me,so it looked like I had just showed up,said hi to her and my buddy,then she turned around picked up the bag and took it into the house.
We got halfway back to my house when we hear behind us-Boys-Boys,and see her coming up the block towards us.We run into the yard of the house were next to and start jumping over fences and walls heading to my house.We just beat her there-she goes up to the front door-my mom answers-she hands mom the bag and says "your boys left this at my house" and then she turns around and leaves.
Next thing I know mom is yelling for me. Trying to repremand me for what I did without laughing about it was tough she told me years later. Today(March 31st)is moms birthday.She passed away in 1996,but while I'm writing this I swear I can hear her laughter.

Depends on where you are. The bridge where they drop the Toyota is nice enough and the have BridgeDay every october. I lived briefly near the Greenbriar. My favorite part was the trout fish hatchery.

Then, there are pits of hell like Logan County where the black woman was locked in a shed forced to eat dog Shakespeare and stabbed repeatedly while she was mentally tortured too.

In short I would just visit some part of the Appalacian. The A.T. trail is awesome and there is the McCoy/Hatfield fourwheel trail.

No loftier recommendation could a town ask for: "Nice fish farm."

I'm not one of the hill-dwelling creatures from Wrong Turn so I can't really vouch for the areas that Ima has described. Here in civilization, it's pretty nice. She is right about the New River Gorge though. It's lovely.

When I was about 9 years old. A friend and I were making crank calls.

We came upon the idea that I would make a call and act like I was a small child hiding from my drunk raging mother (played by my friend).

So I dial a random number, an old lady picks up....


Old Lady: Hello.

Me: (whimpering and sniviling and wispering) This is Jimmy, the little boy down the street from your house. My mommy is beating me and I need help.

In busts my friend Dave screaming like a lunatic and snaping a belt so it sounds like I am being beat.

Me: No mommy dont. I didnt mean too. NO Mommy I love you!

Old lady: Oh my God! Who is this? Where are you? Ill come and get you.

At that, I started to feel bad and just hung up the phone.

Hey, I'm a Canuck, just currently living south of the border! Spell check down here forces me to spell licence with an "s" and neighbour, colour, etc. without the requisite "u", but blast it, I refuse to bow to Yank tyranny outside the confines of my office, eh! :)

Mourning, however, refers to times of grief, whatever the hour of the day...

One time we found a local ad for a muffler shop that said they would put a muffler on any thing.My friend called them up and said that he had a terrible farting problem and wondered if they could put a muffler on his butt.
The owner of the shop said "You bring it in will put it on".

Well one day I bet the old man four dollars and eighteen cents that he couldn't run a mile in under 3 minutes.

Boy, did I look silly when he did!
