"Catch on fire with enthusiasm and people
will come for miles to watch you burn."

1. I think it's encouraging you

to blow yourself up in a most spectacular manner.

Maybe the extra-spicy Vindaloo?

[DS1]

3. Silly Rabbit

Indian food doesn't come with fortune cookies. But I did slather my dish with garlic chili sauce, two different brands, and it was tasty - even if on a suddenly coated superficial level.

2. I believe they're suggesting a peaceful demonstration...

...in the style of a Tibetan Monk.

[DS1]

4. Honestly, I'd sooner get out there and SUPPORT the war, instead

of dousing myself with gasoline and have a pal throw a zippo at me.

[nickgutierrez]

5. Wimp.

:P

[DS1]

7. After you

Tough guy :D

[Rabrrrrrr]

10. It means you're supposed to blow Thomas Kinkade live at a local mall

during the Labor Day telethon.

[DS1]

12. No, I think it means I'm supposed to take the footage of you blowing

T. Kinkade and convert it into a free laser light show and broadcast it live and on the internet by beaming it against Mt. Fuji.

That way, I can paint with light, and you can get your rocks off all over again :P

[Rabrrrrrr]

13. Well, I can't top that one.

You win!

:yourock:

[DS1]

a real flamer.

[DS1]

[jus_the_facts]

18. Are you goin' to the protest?

....mahap your burning enthusiasm there...of which many will be comin' miles to see? :shrug:

[DS1]

19. Negative.

[jus_the_facts]

23. Then I've no idea...never studied Confucius....

...or done any Tibetan hash.....dammit. :D

[sakabatou]

20. If you do something good, others will follow suit

[davsand]

21. Add "In Bed" to the end of it--THEN it makes sense.

"Catch on fire with enthusiasm and people will come for miles to watch you burn--IN BED."


Sounds to me like you are due for a successful new career as a porn star.
