#14- Complete The Endless Setlist

For those RockBand addicts out there who may know what this is, Brandon and I just unlocked The Endless Setlist. That is 58 songs in a row. In previous times, we nearly killed ourselves with a 9 song setlist, but 58? It sounds impossible, but hopefully we'll find a way. We'll probably reach out to the rockers within our friends and take turns. I'm feeling dizzy just thinking about it...

#13- Kick-Off The Summer With Pure Awesomeness/ Completion Record

Since the time for our summer break from school came, we've done a few things weren't worthy for their own list item, but still worthy for the Djibouti List, so I came up with this.

Walk To A Windmill- This would have been worthy of it's own personal spot on the list, but we didn't actually go as far as we would have liked to. On our Father and Son's Campout, some of the older boys and I hiked through woods and a ways up the highway out in the middle of farmland fairly late in the evening in order to touch a windmill. I'm talking about the big white windmills used to generate electricity in the wind farms. We got up to the point where a sign warned all trespassers, so we turned back. The fun part is when we dove into bushes whenever a car came by.

Pull Into Your Friends Garage- On our way home from church, we followed the Goodman's car since they live near us. When we got near the street my family lives on, the Goodmans turned their. They drove down the middle of the street so we couldn't pass them. As we approached our driveway, my mom opened the garage door and the Goodmans turned onto our driveway and pulled into the garage. The only thing extreme about it was that it was extremely funny.

Masking Tape Someone To A Wall- Just now, we masking taped Brandon to a wall. We used tape that Ryan had leftover from the school year. This was a good time to do it because any paint ripped off by the tape would soon be painted over. We took a short video of Brandon freeing himself. The tape didn't even put up a fight.

Completion Record-#12-All-Nighter

We didn't take any pictures, but all is well. Elizabeth took a ten minute nap, so we think that she can still count it as an all-nighter. We've been playing Wii Fit and I haven't been too terribly tired. I think we'll make it since it's 4:11 now. Elizabeth and Ryan get to sleep all day tomorrow, but Brandon and I will have to work to get our house in good shape tomorrow. I don't know if it helps, but we're drinking cans of Vault, which is basically Mountian Dew. I'll get back to you in the morning if I remember. We're all pretty happy and all is going well.

This is a couple days later. As it turned out, I slept all day and Ryan and Elizabeth had to work in their backyard all day. Elizabeth took a 10 and a 5 minute nap during Friday night, so I don't think it should count, but we'll count it anyway. We had fun and there's not much more to it.

#12-Do An All-Nighter

You know what an All-Nighter is right? If not, it's where you basically stay up "all-night". Yeah, it's pretty self explanatory. Anyway, it's already been scheduled for tonight and I'll get up to date with you on the completion record soon. It should be fun. It's over at Ryan's place. I'll probably be really tired tomorrow, but there is a chance I won't. Hope it goes well! By the way, I couldn't find a smaller picture.

Completion Record-#10-Famous Dave's Barbeque Trash Can Lid Meal

We just went to Famous Dave's, and got it. There isn't much to say, but here's a picture. It's not very good quality becuase it was taken on Ryan's dad's new Samsung phone.

#10-Order Trash Can Lid at Famous Dave's Barbeque

At a food chain called Famous Dave's Barbegue, you can get a ton of meat and fries, etc. on a huge metal trash can lid. We're not going to go as far as eating the whole thing by ourselves, but we'll just order it.

You see I got a new acoustic guitar and lessons, and I only know the jaws duh dun part, the end part of Napoleon Dynamite, and finally 22. So it would be sweet if i could learn to play and sing this really dumb, addicting, and super cool song.

#7- Acquire a Golf Ball Mail Box

Driving down the road I saw a mailbox that was just a huge golf ball. The only thing I could think of doing is adding it to the Djibouti list...But then I would have to get two mailboxes, a large mouth bass one and a golf ball one...While we are on the subject of mailboxes, see what unusual mailboxes you can search on Google.

#6 Learn the Napolean Dynamyte Dance

So... at my house I was playing a videogame where you can make your person do the
Napolean Dynamite dance. Well I had a thought, if i could learn this dance, I would be a hit at our church dances.

Completion Record-#3-Gallon Challenge


We're Doing it. It's February 20th, 2009. Here is the first 10 minutes. I "wimped" out and did water. We added food coloring though. Think about what it looks like!
Here is the link to the results. It is not adult content. It is just gross. Click Here
3.10.09-I deleted the puke webpage because it is just gross and stupid. If you want pics,(gross) then leave a comment.

#5-Rockhunting in the Mississippi

Recently I've discovered rock collecting. It's just a way to pass the time when I'm bored. So far I have found white granite, a pretty pink and white rock, a shiny black rock, and finally a gray rock with a pink stripe. In the Mississippi river there should be some sweet rocks like mudstone and conglomerate, and the best part is, I live by it.

#4 Climb Up a Water Tower

Well when you are a kid the first really cool thing you realize is trucks and water towers(who isn't obsessed with big towers holding water). Well these past years I have discovered that they all have rungs you can climb on; so lets find out whats in it by climbing one. Sounds like fun doesn't it.

#3-The Saltine Cracker Challenge

Supposedly, it is impossible to chew and swallow six Saltine crackers in under 1 minute, without drinking or eating anything else during that minute. My brother and I tried it once and we didn't get it. We tried two different methods, eat them all at once and eat one at a time. It sounded like we could get it, but the reason it is(supposedly) impossible, is because saltine crackers are very dry. We'll see...

#2 Do the Gallon Challenge with 2% Milk

Well staying the night at a friends house we decided to drink half a gallon of water, and let me tell you something, it makes you pee. So my dad told me of some funny stories of people trying to drink a gallon of milk in a hour, and i hope we can do that without vomiting, the stomach aches, and the infamous things milk does to your digestive track.( Example Constipation)

#1- Get A Fish Mailbox

As we were riding home one night, we saw a peculiar mailbox. This mailbox did not have a regular box at the top, but it had, none other than, a large mouth bass. Now some people might think that that is weird but me and my friend thought that that was the coolest thing we ever saw. So, because we are so weird, we used it to start the Djibouti List...
