Not as smart as those Aggies when it comes to great bonfire building skills (despite that sad accident a decade ago - I still greatly admire their engineering and fire safety standards)

But I'm okay now - my wife drew some new eyebrows on my face with a sharpie

HAHA!!! Now THAT is something I'd like to see!

You were almost on my bad side until I read the parenthesis. After almost 13 years, my brother-in-law has finally figured out joking about Bonfire falling was not a good idea. I was there and had friends ON Bonfire when it fell. I was actually there BOTH times it fell, but unfortunately everyone thought the massive rains that year was why it fell the first time ... 96?? I miss that tradition

My younger sister is an aggie - so I understand missing the tradition of having the bonfire on campus. (sorry that you and your friends were there when the accidents happened.)

Nope - there will probably never be a time when people can joke about it. At least not me. "My mama didn't raise no fools - at least that lived"

And if you like F Scott and Zelda, try watching last year's movie "Midnight in Paris" with Owen Wilson going back in time and partying with them (Plus folks like Hemingway, Picasso, Getrude Stein, Cole Porter etc. - this would have been a fun era to live in Paris.)

You will always be my soul dad/grandad love your face
