Stupid is as stupid does

Took a shotgun shell with me one morning as a young teenager walking to school with my buddy. Never knew what was inside so opened the top and dumped the pellets out. Think a wad was next so pulled it out and there's powder. While holding it between my fingers dropped a match into it. Powder burned nicely as expected but I wasn't counting on it setting off the firing cap. Shook me up a little but was neat as heck.

:lol: sounds like learning that a line of black powder on the ground doesn't burn nice and slow like it does in the movies. A 10 ft line lasts about 1/2 second :yikes:

That was the best for a drunk over. Put an ashtray with the black powder, their smokes and a lighter where they would find it when thay came to. All hung over, stub out their smoke and pffffffffffffft :yikes:

I saw you this afternoon when I glanced over. I was locked on those 2 cars in front of me, they gave me the "bad feeling".

Worse than that. Had a homeroom in a science class that we always entered before the teacher got there. Young guy teacher was attempting to make acid in a bowl so one of my classmates helped. He went into the back room and got some real acid and poured some in. Teacher came in and stuck his fingers into the bowl and later on started to complain about pain. He was happy because he thought he'd accomplished something and we were doing our best to hold from laughing out loud. To this day I don't thinkhe knows what really happened and I'm certainly not going to tell him.

I'm glad I head south in the afternoon, there are some gaps in the traffic
