Subject: RE: BS: Jean Shepherd's Christmas Story
BTW, I used to listen to it with my boyfriend (I was 16 and he was 18). After the show in which they burned down the school with a hot air balloon, we made one ourselves using a laundry bag and some drinking straws. Wouldn't you know it, the damn thing headed straight for the nearest school (a private Catholic school). We nearly shit our pants. Fortunately, it landed in the yard outside the school.
