they break upon us,
threatening to scatter our line,
but holding firm
we fire staccato bursts of laughter...
pop
pop
pop
...until the day is won.
just having a bit of fun. this was a bubble pit the fire department created for a local festival...the waves were three feet over my head at one point...what can you say in 160 characters? (spaces included) say it, and go see Monkey Man.

Good fun! I can hear the laughter...
what fun! that's one way to get someone to take a bath.
Never heard of a bubble pit. Looks like fun though.
You always find a way to stumble into good clean fun.
Looks a lot like the Snowfest put on here in South Florida in the winter. I've never participated myself, but my daughter did it once. I guess that says something about how much she liked it. To each his own. :)

That is like a wild and wonderful dream! Never heard of a bubble pit - there is always something new to discover. Great 160 Brian.
Another superb piece of work.
Thanks for this.
All the best, Boonsong
Fabulous fun! I like the photo too.
Excellent lol oh clean clean fun lol
WooHoo! Now, that looks like a good time!
A bubble pit, looks like more fun then a bubble bath. Oops, whats this says 'the walking man' till they clean you off with the fire hose, ouch.
A fun 160 for sure.

Joanny

You are so talented! I really enjoy your word play and if I had a bit more time to ruminate, I'd try it. However, I sure enjoyed yours!
Now this is living
Wow, that's really wild!
love this one... wish there were more words!!! and bubbles... fun!!!!
What a fun adventure for you and the boys. Thanks for using it as a basis for your 160. Very cool.
How did you breathe? :)
That looks like such fun, Brian. I bet you had a great time - one can tell this from your wonderful and uplifting 160 :)
I've never seen something like this before. Looks so much better than a mud pit. :)
Never heard of a bubble pit but it sure looks fun!
I thought it was snow until you said it was bubbles!
what a wonderful 160...it was great to see a full sized photo of your bubble fun! i've never had the pleasure of swimming in bubbles over my head but you make me want to get hold of my local firefighters to see what they can whip up!
Brian is this the Heat of summer? I feel like I'm trapped in a funny capsule? Did I just not understand? Oh well, I like what you did...and the laughter!
Looks like a blast! :) Well done 160 as usual, Brian.
Cheers...
Oh, that looks fun.
This looks and sounds like such a blast! Love when the PD and FD get involved with the community.
sage, are you trying to tell me something? smiles.
"bursts"
of laughter
i like that!
Just reading this and seeing this picture makes me smile big. How wonderful that you still know how to have fun. I hope you don't ever lose that! Happy Sunday to you and yours. :)
PS Hope your wifes new job is going well for her. :)
I've never heard of a bubble pit. However, one time my son dumped a bunch of bubble bath into the jacuzzi tub. He turned the jets on had waves and waves of bubbles cascading out of the tub and onto the floor. :o)
Man wish my fire department would do that. *smiles*
Sunday 160: Almost New Room
love the title, the sentiment expressed, and nice bit of advice too - a 160 I must take to heart. Thank you!
Oh, very cool. I'm glad you told us what the picture was. It looked an awful lot like my basement the first time one of the kids did laundry.
Bubble pit!?
Okay, Brian, you are just having too much fun - but thanks for sharing it!
Squeaky Clean Brother...
Great Family Fun
Wow, I've never been in a bubble pit. I've been in a ball pit and a sponge blocks pit. Didn't like either too much. The sponge block stuff was I allergic to.
WONDERFUL 160, B!
xo
Ha! I've never seen such a thing. Looks like fun! :)
That bubble pit looks like fun. I love our your picture and your poem.
What a blast! It's so cool seeing you and your kids having fun. What a good dad!
The words alone were great, the picture made it even better. :)
Oh how fun! I've never heard of doing this. I bet your boys had a blast! Loving the beard, too, Brian! :)
Pffft. Those bubbles are what's LEFT after I drain the water from one of my bubble baths. ;-)
ah what fun that looks mate :)
I like my bubbles in the bathtub, and definitely not when I'm wearing clothes.
How fun is that!! That is hilarious LOL
xxm
I thought it was snow too! That is a lot of bubbles.
That looks like "good clean fun ;-)
But it makes my eyes sting looking at you.
Cheers, jj
I so want a bubble pit experience. That looks like fun! Exhilarating!
How fun! I just think that looks like a blast, and the poem is pretty darn good too.
That looks so cool!
wondered where you found the big bath tub.
Thanks Bri for always keeping us smiling.
glad you finally figured out the hyper link thing
Moon smiles
