Chemistry, electricity, ballistics... I studied it all when I was a boy.

I made quite a few discoveries over the years. Some were neat, some not so pleasant...

If you plug an electric guitar into an amp and turn it on, the pickups will pick up the signal from a TV remote.

If you cut the jack off the end of a low voltage transformer and run the two wires over a central heat register in the floor, it produces small sparks... And if you attach the jack from a pair of headphones to the register and run the transformer wires over the register it makes wonky sounds in the headphones.

You can't pile enough dead grass and hay over a burning two-liter pop bottle full of gas to smother the flames. (That one got me a beatin')

Leaving baby birds on the porch steps for your older female cousin to step on... Will get you a beatin'.

If you use paper towels for wadding, a potato cannon will launch a handful of marbles so far into the air that it's a solid 10 to 15 seconds before you hear them hitting the roof of the house across the street. Mom finally made dad cut the potato cannon up.

This is no joke: When my mom and dad got married, my dad told my mom he wanted a whole football team of boys. After I got old enough to walk, talk, and be a little person, he told her they could try once for a daughter.

Really surprised I survived my own foolish stunts. And my parents should be up for sainthood.

That's funny stuff my wife is still laughing. We had no kids !

Our preachers wife bought their son a play handsaw for Christmas. He sawed the 2 legs off the same side of his sisters bed, but only a few inches.

It doesn't take near as much gas to get a half acre pond covered in 5 foot flames for about 5 minutes as an 11 year would think. Didn't think I'd see 12 there for awhile if grandpa would have found out.
