#25.5: Playing A Banjo to A Fox On New Year's Eve
Hey, folks — here are three small New Year’s Eve ‘story composites’ (sourced from here) and a video of someone playing a banjo to a wild fox. Hope you’re all staying safe.
STORY #1:
My brother got me drunk and put up banners all over the house in the current year and made me think I was just having a dream. We drank virgin Pina Colada's and watched Dirty Dancing on the VCR. During this, my mom made the motion of doing the toast, but didn't explain or tell me other details. The party stopped for a second right after I threw my champagne glass at the ceiling. We cleaned it up, laughed it off, and my mom, my dad, my older brother and I just laid a blanket on the driveway and stared at the stars while the new millennium rolled in.
STORY #2:
One of the few years I decided to stay sober for new year's eve festivities was one decade ago. When I got into a sword fight a few minutes before the ball dropped. But the highlight had to be partying with the lady who did the voice of Jimmy Neutron.
STORY #3:
A few years back my dad and I went on a casino trip. We were on our way back to the hotel, but the shuttle bus we were on broke down. We rang in the new year with a bunch of drunken folks from the country. Their first time in the city. They told us about the reward and grind of being a farmer. And earlier that day I went and saw the Wizard of Oz in a nearby theatre and met some of the munchkins from the film. That was a really great day.
