HAHAH! MiM, you have no idea, but when I was like 7 or 8, I actually dressed up as Blaine Edwards (the Wayans one) for Halloween! Can you believe that?! So wrong on so many levels.
I mean, I was basically a kid in black-face. I painted my face and hands in brown paint (actually it was copper, i couldn’t find brown paint) and I wore an afro that I bought at Wooworth’s and made a pink cape and a little hat, I sewed these doilies to my shirt…oh man. I was all “two snaps and circle!”. And when I arrived at people’s doorsteps asking for candy, they’d just look at me blankly and ask “what are you?” and I’d say “that gay guy from In Living Color!” facepalm
Who lets their kid dress up like this?! HAHAH! My mom, that’s who. I don’t even think she knew what I was! I need to find the pic. Its priceless.
sorry for the hijack
Edit: actually, now that i think about it, i think i was 11 or so - which probably makes it worse!

there probably about 150lbs a piece…I had a genius idea of somehow roping them together to make one BIG tire, but there’s no where to grip from underneath…
which is why I got the two, but now kinda regret it…I’ll probably roll one out to the dumpster when it gets dark.

hey sorry hadn’t checked the log in awhile. Some tips… you can bolt two tires together.
You can also get some big lag screws or drill a hole and nut and bolt a piece of a 2x4 on both sides to raise the tire up a bit to get grip underneath it.

HAHAHAHA I think we had similar parents. When I was 8-10 I dressed up as Terry Pendleton (MVP winning 3rd baseman from the braves) full on black face. Used that stuff you put under your eyes for baseball. and stuffed a pillow under my shirt as he was a bit fat. Being a short really skinny white kid… Wish I had a pic
Awesomeness going on here for sure. Happy to hear about the hubby being back - that is way exciting for sure.
On the shirt thing - I hear I still find myself buying to big. I am stuck on the I wear a large, so that is what I go for everytime. Now I find that I am a small or medium depending on the shoulder and how they are cut & if it is a long sleeve how they fit over my forearms. I have freakishly large forearms.
