Campbell Roast 2010

So there I was, sitting on the couch, drinking whiskey, and watching sunday night television, when it happened. The most brilliant idea I've had in a long while. To offically Roast my family. Now for those of you who don't know what a roast is I'll explain. (and by those of you I mean YOU mother, because I'm pretty sure you're the only one who reads this. The fact that I still feel the need to explain what a roast is to someone I already know understands it is beyond me.)
A Roast is, according to Wikipedia:
an event in which an individual is subject to publicly bearing comedic insults, praise, outlandish true and untrue stories and heartwarming tributes. The implication being that the roastee is able to take the jokes in good faith and not as serious criticism or insult, and therefore show their good nature. It is seen as a great honor to be roasted, as the individual is surrounded by friends, fans, and well-wishers, who can receive some of the same treatment as well during the course of the evening. The party and presentation itself are both referred to as a roast. The host of the event is called the roastmaster. Anyone who is honored in such a way is said to have been "roasted".
Awesome!
So like i was saying, i was drinking whiskey and i called my mom and i was like "mom! You know what we should totally do!!!" and she was like "What" and i said "we should host a campbell family roast!" long story short we decided to roast our cousin brett.

This is going to be the most fun i've had in my entire life!

the best part is there are so many people to make fun of. I hope they will let me come back for the next reunion.
