My brother blew out the side of our shed...Dad was NOT pleased.....I was
riding ponies down the street when the fire engine came throttling along and
when raced after them all the way to our field....was a sight to
behold....and then when he was in the Army, they gave him his very own ABM
missile to play with....

we were kids....split it down the sides and flattened it....was quite the
sight....and he didn't have to go to Purdue to accomplish it....

We exploded a 55 gal drum that has some gasoline in it... maybe a
couple of gallons left. We did it on a small island in the middle of a
river in a driving rainstorm. My friend used a 10 ft fuse and ran like
hell after he lit it. The fireball was incredible at a 1/4 mile
away. There were pieces of the drum embedded in trees in all directions.
My friend was lucky he didn't die.

I think I'm going to reevaluate prayer.
