Patrick, I used to have a tennis ball cannon made out cans and duct-tape, fired by alcohol cumbustion.  Is that a similar weapon?

I was once officially 'reprimanded' for 'firing a cannon' in the Men's Dorm.  I hope they have expunged those old records, or Homeland Security might be looking at me.

Seems like I remember I got a $50 fine...and that was back when 50 was a LOT of money, especially for a poor college student.

Patrick:
Dave, same principle. Can be "fired" by compressed air, or it can be fired with an accelerant (hair spray, WD-40, propane, etc.).

I got caught "popping smoke" in High School; set off a smoke grenade that my uncle brought back from Viet Nam. When I threw it and ran, the principle was standing at the back door as I ran by. Busted!
   

Dave in Tenn:
LOL.  You had a much sweeter arsenal than we had.  We had to get our smoke-bombs from the Fireworks vendors.  Nobody was injured the day we cleared out the library.  I say 'we'...I was the one with the cigarette lighter, so the mission was really mine.  But 'they' urged me on to glory, my comrades.

Ninny:
Does the name Eddie Haskell ring a bell? (Leave it to Beaver).
I'll bet he'd blow up a potato! Hmmm. :D :D
 Kathy ;)
