Autumn.

I love autumn because of a couple reasons. One is because it means closer to winter and that means closer to Christmas, which is something I hope everyone looks forward to. The second biggest reason I love autumn is because it is football season. ROLL TIDE! But besides my love for football I enjoy autumn for the sweatshirts, jeans, and of coarse the bonfires. I love being able to sit around a fire with friends and roast marshmallows. I love being able to just talk to them about anything going on in my life and them being able to help me, but I love most of all playing with fire. I know that when we were younger our parents would always say DONT PLAY WITH FIRE, but we are big kids now and its always a huge temptation. I've always wanted to make a giant torch, and through the help of Joel Harney I was taught the proper way to do so. The trick is to find a very nice branch or stick that is mildly damp and very sturdy. It needs to be roughly a couple inches in diameter and a yard or more long. You then go to your closet and find a couple pairs of old boxers, a couple pairs of old socks (depending on how big you want your torch to be), and finally go to the kitchen a get a lighter. You wrap the boxers around the end of the stick, put your socks over that to hold it sturdy, and then you have a torch. Thats not the final step and I cannot say what it is because that is disclosed information, but I will say that KIDS DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME. I am an untrained professional trying this dangerous act at home and dont want anyone else getting injured during the process. If you do decide to go around these guidelines and try this at home, do not attempt inside your house. Your parents will get mad and through large, valuable, heavy, sharp objects at you.
