I hear ya ... This brought back memories of a prank my uncle played on my aunt, my grandmother, my mom and I back in the late 1990’s. We were at my aunt’s home in her kitchen while everyone else was in the living room watching a football game. She is cooking away at her stove - all 4 burners were being used, the oven and microwave. She was just putting the finishing touches on the main Italian meal. Meanwhile we all brought over the side dishes and desserts and the bread. So here we are my grandmother, my mom and I sitting down at her kitchen table keeping her company. Then my uncle comes in and sits down and starts talking and not to long after that ... the worse foul odor of rotten eggs takes over the kitchen. But my aunt is still oblivious to the awful smell ... perhaps because her back was to us and the steam from cooking the pasta or the smell of tomato sauce? :unsure: Anyway I quickly glanced over at grandmother, mom and uncle and each of us were puzzled with the awful smell and using facial expressions and silently mouthing “its NOT me” so finally my grandmother scolds her daughter and says are you cooking eggs for egg salad? If so, we believe they are overcooked. She’s perplexed and said no, I’m not cooking eggs why do you ask? Then she walks over to the table ... and gets a whiff of the rotten egg odor and goes UGH! And quickly heads to her trash can to bring the trash outdoors. :mdrmdr: By this time my uncle starts laughing and finally confesses he smushed 2 gas bomb gel pills on the floor to created the ((odor)). He said he bought the pills at a local gag gift store and he used them in crowded elevators to get a reaction as well as on the crowded dance floors. He said the people in the elevators are either looking for a tissue or they use their scarf or piece of clothing to cover their noses and are out the door in record time. :mdrmdr: More DEW at Air Force Base -Fair Use- This thread being a catch all thread covers many topics. Input by many, and extremely long posts! No wonder we are on the fifth edition! That said, there was a time at RITAN when long threads were mostly ignored! Apparently no longer the case! We just might hit version 6 or 7 or 8 before the Rapture! TR TR, say it’s not so ... maybe 6 but no more ! Home, home on the range, where the stars and angels play ... oh! Give me a home, among the heavenlies! :prayer-hands: Give me a home, with a heavenly phone and skies are not cloudy any day! Oh well, not a lyricist! Given the fact average attention span apparently has been enlarged by reason of video games and texting, write to your hearts content! TR
