Eat Yer Peas, Drink Yer Milk
by Mike Long

Surely many gay Americans have seen Gus Van Sant’s Milk through tears of joy because it marks a long-hoped-for arrival. For the first time in mainstream entertainment (at least, this is the picture that got all the fanfare), the history of the gay rights movement is presented as an elemental and welcome part of the story of the U.S., and not as a sidebar or novel supplement to the Great Historical Narrative.

So, er, a friend wants to know,is there goin' to be a prairie fire of moral chaos around here, or what.

A prairie fire is a drink, isn't it?

Someone from Edmonton taught it to me, and showed me the local version as well, which is much, much more destructive.

This may be what the commenter had in mind.

Good lord, why don't people drink them?

Another Kiwi said...

RB, I think that you may be misunderstanding the instructions. One drinks and then pulls out ones sidearm and fires it at the roof. It will get more and more hilarious as the evening progresses

Righteous Bubba said...

Roofies?

I am not at all sure how to process that, Rusty. I may have to get back into video-editing.
