Dean: emergency! Coming through! Dean: Unexploded munition from yesterday. Heart: Safety first...especially when dealing with lady finger firecrackers. Kat: This is serious....Dean's using the salad tongs!
About 30 years ago, a local fireworks display got off to a very bad (and boring) start. Seems like there was a lapse of about five minutes between each shell. People in the audience began to realize that debris from the shells — including embers — were falling among the spectators. After about 20 minutes, an announcement was made that the fireworks were cancelled and everyone should go home. The next day on the news, it was apparent that there were bigger problems than debris and embers falling into the crowd. Fire marshal inspectors found live rounds where the crowds were sitting, and UXO atop the nearby high school building. Major malfunction. We were lucky no one was injured and that there was no catastrophic explosion of shells on the ground.

Looks like Dean’s complying to be a “Star Wars” Rebel Alliance person on the planet Hoth. Going to be sweaty in there in THIS weather.

Just as long as he doesn’t use the salad thongs…

The last 2 bubbles from Kat were probably unnecessary. As was this comment.
