Wow, goodbye car..... I have been to bbq were we blew stuff up.... Except we filled balloons with acetylene and oxygen and placed them in a garbage bag, then stuffed the bag in a 50 gallon drum....... Took off like a rocket and cleared some tall pine trees... Nervous doing it, because of static....

I never did get WNYorkers love for the Monte Carlo. I still see them (fixed up no less) when I visit.

Pathetic. We used to launch pick-ups like 30' straight up, out in the desert near Edwards AFB.

 

Funny thing was, the good townsfolk in California City assumed all the booms were just the flyboys having fun, while the guys on base were scratching their heads saying "what the !@#$ was THAT?"

 

Ahh, good times indeed.

I swear you guys are all about blowing things up. How about trying to do something more constructive and beneficial to society? For instance, try reading a book.

You're absolutely right.

"The Chemistry of Powders and Explosives" by Tenney Davis *is* pretty good. :(

Working my way through the "Anarchist's Cookbook" as we speak.

 

Had that been my work, it would have landed in another zip code.  Rookies.

I've been working my way through some Anton Levey - and listening to Carol King's Tapestry.
