7/14/2005: Fire stunt
 
http://cellar.org/2005/firestunt.jpg

I'm a bit late getting to this 4th of July stunt. The official caption:

Todd Grannis, 38, stands in flames on a 10-foot platform in Grants Pass, Ore., Monday, July 4, 2005, before plunging into a pool. After emerging from the water unscathed, he dropped down on one knee and proposed to his girlfriend, Malissa Kusiek. Grannis said he came up with the stunt through the help of his friend, professional stuntman Eric Barkey.

Yeah. The problem with that is, now you're on the hook to do something this big on every anniversary, or at least the big ones. Good luck with that, buddy.

Last night we received a phone call from a guy who wanted an out-of-hours visit.

He said he wanted to propose to his girlfriend.

I nearly wept, the idea was so romantic.

I think this is possibly the strangest thing we've ever been requested ... no, second strangest. One of our frequent flyer's daughters came with her date on prom night, him in his tux, the girl in her very lovely prom dress, to pose with her mother (in her straightjacket) for prom-night photos.

Was the prom date wearing a white jacket? That could have been a bit addling for some of your guests..........but I guess they're already there so it wouldn't really matter.

If a man proposed to me like this, I wouldn't marry him. I mean, obviously, he can be talked into anything.

Wolf you must be a great guest to have at parties. No lack of conversation starters for you.

Really Bri? I mean, you got to admit, he's hot!

dar512 07-14-2005 03:57 PM

Yeah, but he's got a history, you know? He's bound to be someone's old flame.

Now Bri, don't play hard to get. :D

Anyway IMO his proposing marriage is a flag down for being slightly gullable. I know... that's prob misspelled. :worried:

GROAN!! GROAN TO ALL THREE OF YOU!! :lol:

And you're right, capnhowdy. Who am I trying to kid? :D

Hey, did you know that "gullable" isn't even a real word? Look it up in a dictionary!

Oh, right. That might explain it.

Gullable: capable of pooping on people who throw Cheetos to you at the beach. See: Flying Rat.

xoxoxoBruce 07-14-2005 08:20 PM

For their 7th anniversary he'll do it over.....without the pool. :love2:

capnhowdy 07-14-2005 09:00 PM

Leah 07-14-2005 11:35 PM

What if she said NO, how pissed off would he be. :rar:
