RE: Juke Box Time: Paul Simon - Kodachrome (HQ)

hahaha! thanks for the beer friendly -fenix. ya know when I was a kid before I got into pistols and rifles I used to take those metal film canisters, because my dad was a photographer and had lots of em around, and make bombs out of them.

I would take regular firecrackers and unwrap them and pour the gun powder into one of those canisters until it was full, then drill a hole in the lid and put in a fuse and screw the lid on.

man was that an explosion! that was like a third of a stick of dynamite going off, we blew up alot of stuff with those homemade bombs! lol.

Sort:  

Oh really, thats a bit crazy, hope you still have your hands and fingers intact?
Cheers!

haha! no that wasn't crazy by Kansas nor Texas standards, now when I got hold of guns it got a little crazy! lol

Yeah, I guess that would be fairly normal growing up in Texas.

haha! yes sir we're a wild bunch of gun-slinging maniacs who like to shoot things up and blow things to smitherines, you should here it around here at Christmas time and the 4th of July, it's like a war zone.

Yeah, trust me I can almost hear it from here! Texas is famous for being the place where people really enjoy their firearms the most (in the world maybe?). =)

Cheers!

haha! yes that's a fair assessment but I hear that Mexico citizens just ignore the gun laws down there and also go crazy shooting their guns into the air on holidays! but maybe that's just a myth.

@janton
They sometimes shoot but sadly not for celebration so much anymore...
Mexico has strict gun laws, like really strict compared to the US.
Quite surprising for many people.

But in Guatemala its like "open carry", or maybe people just don't give a damn, but last time I was in Guatemala there was many fairly normal people having picknicks with their families or something and the father would just casually have a handgun strapped to his belt.

well sir I know about the gun laws in Mexico that why I mentioned that from what I've read, the people just ignore them, but maybe that's just in certain parts of the country, it's a big place.
and it sounds like Guatemala has the same attitude which I didn't know, that's very interesting, it sounds like a very dangerous place to live from everything I've read.
you got great information, thank you sir friendly-fenix!
