Maybe it
should be some sort of illegal to have matches and gasoline within ten feet of eachother, because I've heard some  emasculating stories involving the two.  And yes, I mean, literally- emasculating.  I hope you have a safe weekend!

A rose right back and a belly scratch for Bo!

Why didn't I ever think of that, Naut?
I think I'll try it...

My brother and I made
our emergency room pretty wealthy for awhile there, too, Taps!

Ah, the old salt on snails trick!
That's pretty funny, Talia -- I bet you had to do a lot of looking over your shoulder!

Before I forget...
We actually got a few flies, if from rather close range...

Hilarious, strat.
The blow gun incident reminds me of the occasion when a couple of buddies and I tried to shoot flies with a BB gun, in the house. We weren't stupid enough to use BB's, of course but,  being really smart, we cut slugs from potatoes! As a result, we didn't shoot out any windows, but we made a God-awful mess of walls and ceilings, requiring a new paint job...the retribution was commensurate with the crime...

Oh, the memories, strat.  My four sons cut their teeth on Tom & Jerry and Road Runner cartoons and The Three Stooges movies, and went on from there.   You would not believe the number of times we were off to the ER for sutures and other first aid.

Such hilarity! I am a girl who the Three Stooges and might have even jumped in on a couple of misdeeds in my youth as well. Ant condos was my favorite!  sam

Srat...you are too funny!
I grew up with lots of brothers, so I can relate!  My brothers would pour salt on snails and watch as they bubbled.  I would cover my eyes. They never knew it, but I still watched!  I think we are all curious by nature!  The worst trouble I got into as a child, was when I took a can of hairspray and sprayed it into the bathroom heater!  At the time, I didn't know I could have blown the hole house up! LOL!  Talia
