The Comedic Arson Players

Theater majors as joking church-burners:


Wench: "Dost thou like my fireplace?" Benjamin Moseley: "Fire this place? Thou caluminous dizzy-eyed harpy! Thou knowest I only fire churches."


It's not all glamour: Russell Debusk backstage with the accelerants. "Thou foul and pestilent congregation of vapours," he said, "forsooth, I wish I knew how to quit thee."

Recent Comedic Arson Player productions:

"Fireman on a Hot Church Roof"
"Much Ado about Arson"
"The Importance of Being Mirandized"
"A Coupla White Dudes Goin' Around Burnin' Shit"
"The Flametasticks"
"The Effect of Bubba's Ways on Recently-Incarcerated Rectums"

They'll be getting a very different education shortly when fedco puts the squeeze on them for felony arson.

This 'prank' just cost them whatever promising future's they had ahead of them.

They got a ton of felony arson charges on them. They're going away for a long time.

So this was a prank that "got out of hand."

OK. That's pretty pathetic, but for the sake of argument, I'll accept it, for now.

That explains the first fire. That may have been a prank that got out of control. What about the next 8 "pranks?"

You see, after the first one "got out of control," I would expect those of even less than normal intelligence to have an "OH CRAP!!" moment, and decide that we shouldn't do this again.

So, boys, if you want to stick with the "prank defense," you are either liars, or too stupid to breath. Since you are apparently breathing . . .

Looking forward to your 25 year run starring in _Cell Block Bitch_.
