Indeed I was katy..the Navy slapped most of it out of me.

Me and my brothers were always in trouble. Alberts list is very tame
compared to the stuff we would do.

Infact my brother had to join the service due to a prank he paid on the
towns sheriff.

Our town was only 450 people and only one sheriff. My bro made a HUGE
8X16 foot sign at the town tabernackle that said "Sheriff Johnson Sucks
@*$Ks" everyone in town saw it, and the sheriff was not amused.....

Our favorite was buying rubbers in the bathroom at the diner, un
hooking the gas space heater, filling the rubber until they were twice
the size of a watermellon putting a long fuse on them at letting them
go at night. Giant fireballs would light up the county...bwahahahaha
the newspapers went nuts over thoses.

And the trouble we got into with that tractor....oh man

Billy's house backed up on a 20'x20' concrete flood control creek that always
had a few inches of water in it. His dad, a machinist, had brought home a box
of magnesium 'chips' (long curls) he lit as sparklers. One night Billy and
another kid accidentally got the box burning so they tossed it into the creek.
It went off like a giant flash bulb, lighting the overcast sky for miles around.
Authorities thought "A-Bomb" and were not amused.

Things I've learned from my Boys (honest and not kidding):

1.) A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4
inches deep.
2.) If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller
blades, they can ignite.
3.) A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded
restaurant.
4.) If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong
enough to rotate a 42 pound boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman
cape.
It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all
four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5.) You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using
a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you
get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6.) The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a
ceiling fan.
7.) When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too
late.
8.) Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.

Can someone repost... I can't see the rest of the list due to heavy
smoke.
