Our spontaneous
Guy Fawkes party came off well, if a couple of weeks late. I finally enticed a few of my climbing buddies (Frank, Reema, Randall, Jen) out, their first time to my Montco house. They mixed in with the E.R. usuals around our new fire pit, a primal circle against the cool fall night - building to catharsis and many burning effigies.
Meanwhile we did karaoke (Rock Band 2 on the Wii) in the basement.
The unexpected food of the night was Mel's vodka-soaked gummy worms. Strong enough for a contact high at three feet, they may last us through 2010.
