EW, do not make me say it. Don't! Do not!


Too late!


...and his black & white cat.
 
Foro, no please. Stop!

The sad thing is that I actually know it - AND IT WAS NOT PART OF MY YOUTH. It was after my time!!!!!
 
My vacation isn't until August, but it's no problem as there have been several days off during May, and there is the European Championships to get me through June :)
 
EW, that sounds like a good plan for you! I have some vacation days available, but I like to use them around 3 day weekends, so I can extend my time off without burning too many days....
 
FAO Perun, a song for you:


From the album notes:

Stenka Na Stenku
Wall on Wall

Wall on wall is an ancient Slavic entertainment for men, that was basically a fist fight. Such a thing was conducted quite often on July 24, the Perun (the war god) festival. Two rows of men stood facing each other like two walls and at run they started the fight in the middle of the ground. Such an entertainment was believed to be good for strengthening the fighting spirit.

"Wall on wall - knee-deep grass,
Wall on wall - fear, disappear!
The lightning rune in this Perun day
Will guide us into the fist fight."
 
So we have this little 'festival' in the town in work-- they take up both of our parking lots and set up a carnival, food vendors, and at night, they have live bands. Usually we have a local-ish band play on one stage, then the 'main act' comes on the main stage, and we finish the night with another localish band. there is usually a mix of rock and country-- last year we had Seether, Theory of a Deadman, Ronnie Dunn (country) and a few other acts like that. This year, Twisted Sister and Alice Cooper will be here! I'm kinda excited to see both of them live-- and it is right out the back door of my work!!

Sounds like a decent celebration, wouldn't you say?

Is that the sort of festival involving corn roast and mashed potato contests? :D
