Well, not quite what I had in mind, but by the time the fun was underway, I couldn't get the car out under the EXPLODING fireworks display.
Here is my car under a less impressive "fireworks display" from the local Kroger affiliate.
Since everyone else has avoided this particular gauntlet, I'll propose the next, if there is acceptance of my literal interpretation of the last challenge.

Great thing about the fun challenge, you are free to interpret what they ask for, for instance:
Next challenge
Your VW in front of a gay bar or in view of a gay pride parade. Bonus points if it is in the gay pride parade. |

I feel that the "loose interpretation" factor only applies if the challenge is stalled for a week or two or agreed upon by the person that set the challenge or a few of the members, otherwise...
I could use this & set the next challenge. _________________ Everybody born before 1975 has a story, good, bad, or indifferent, about a VW.

That's a great interpretation, what's our next challenge?
You could make the next challenge a skatepark for skateboards with ramps and rails. No roller rink or Ice rink accepted. |
