Fourth of July at Innsbrook

As some of you may know, our family goesout to a chalet owned by our grandparents every Fourth of July and Memorial Day. At least, we try to. On Memoial Day, there's a big party thing with free food, live music, and children attractions. On the Fourth of July, there's a big fireworks show. So we cameout here on Thursday, both because of the fireworks show and because my dad loves the place, and gets Friday off. Really, I wasn't up to it. I thought we were leaving on Friday afternoon, and I would much rather be with Josh checking out the only two Bugatti Veyron Grand Sports in the Western hemisphere.

However, once I got out here, I realised that I was just really tired from staying up until two-thirty the night before, and had forgotten how much I loved this place. Wow, has time flew. Here I am, writing this in the last few minutes before the end of the day, and I can't believe the weekend is almost over. But anyway, that's not why I'm writing you.

The real reason I'm writing is because of the fireworks show. I was so settled in that I hadn't gotten out of my pajamas, and it was 6:00. We ate, layed around some more, knowing that sooner or later, we would all leave to see the fireworks show. Well, we left unprepared. We just got up, grabbed a bunchof stuff, and left. Bad idea.

We forgot the fact that it looked like it was going to rain. Sort of. We had some umbrellas and stuff, but really, if it rained, we wouldn't really be prepared. So we got out there, set up, waited, and it rained. We alljust picked up everything and ran back to the car. Then is started pouring. We all just sat there and wondered if it was still on or not. We watched others. Some were leaving. Some were moving. Some were staying. What were we going to do? Mom and Karen decided it was too wet, and they weren't getting out again. Should we leave as well, and find a better place to park and watch? Would it matter if the show was canceled? If we can't park there, could we get our spot back? We weren't sure. So, instead of deciding, we just sat there. We rolled down the window to see if the music was still playing. It was.

Then, the rain stopped. Dad and I got out, to hear what they were saying over the speakers. We were going to grab the chairs, just in case, when we heard someone say it was officaly canceled. We looked at each other, and told mom and Karen. But, we still wanted to hear, so we left the chairs and went anyway. Good idea! It was either canceled, then started, or started, but it was on.

It was so cool. As cool as it always is, of cource. :P I ran back and grabbed the tripod to take some great pictures, which turned out really well. I also took a few on my phone. But when I turned around, I saw something really cool, and also a little sad.

A van had driven off the side of the road, and needed the assistance of a tow truck to drag it out. This stopped all the trafic of people coming and going. But as the fireworks started, everyone got out of their cars and stood on the side of the road and watched. It was just like one of those movies, where two people go do something, and the whole community gets involved, and then there's a street party.

Now, I wrote this post and hour ago, and the internet connection out here is so intermetient, that I took me an hour to post this blog. So you better like it.

(SIDE NOTE: As I ran to and from the car to grab the tripod, I felt like I was running from a bombing. What with all of the lights, the booms, the people trying to leave as fast as they could, me running as fast as I could... Or maybe I just have mental issues.)

ACC and EnzoLegend

Many of you may know that I hang out on a website called Animal Crossing Community, or ACC for short. It's a forum where I can talk to other people about video games and stuff like that.

So, the other day, I got a private message titled "U R wrong." This person told me that I was "retarted" and that the Nintendo DS Browser didn't exist. I OWN the Nintendo DS Browser. We went back and forth until I couldn't bear it anymore and said that it doesn't make any sense to argue with a loser, and I left.

Well today, he expanded, and let his stupidity go public. For more of EnzoLegend's antics, please, read below.

(For a better viewing experience, please read posts regarding what EnzoLegend says. His avatar is the large bear with a purple background.)

Also, some more information about this person. Here is his profile. Points of interest are the "Currently Playing" section, the "Signature" section, and the "Other Stuff About Me" section.

Currently Playing: With my girlfriend
Signature: IT amazes me how stupid some people r...
Other Stuff About Me: I like cars and stuff like that. If you disagree with me, you will get owned by my superior smartness. I play DS and Animal Crossing all the time. I kind of consider myself a video game genius. I know tons about video games. So you will see me around on the boards and remember, stay out of my way.

Previously, his signature read "It doesn't matter how rich you are or where you've been, it matters how many girls you have following you around." (Something like that.) He also previously stated that he had "a lot of girls" and continued to rate them all on a scale of one to ten, with "7/10, 6/10, 8/10, 9/10, and 7/10." He has removed those things in favor for showing how stupid he thinks I am.

Please also note that this icon:...means that he is new to the site, which sheds some light on as to why he thinks he is suddenly the best on this site.

UPDATE: He has recently erased his signature.
