And it was a "frogman.' Never saw a sub. It was good for a month waiting for the mail, and then 5 minutes of watching it go up and down. Money would have been better spent on a squirt gun. Did anything you got for 2 box tops and a quarter really live up to the expectations? It was the only thing I remember getting with a boxtop. I moved up to the Johnson Smith catalog quite early. Whoopee cushions? -- Proud to be a Liberal. |

I wish I had one today. A loud bang still seems to be the most effective training aid for Mr Ed, although he has really gotten much better. I haven't needed a fire cracker in months. His running days seem to be over. I always sort of wanted a carbide cannon, but never pulled the trigger. They looked good. |
