You find out interesting things when you have sons
You find out interesting things when you have sons, like...
1. A king size waterbed holds enough water to fill a 2000 sq. ft. house 4 inches deep.
2. If you spray hair spray on dust bunnies and run over them with roller blades, they can ignite.
3. A 3-year old Boy's voice is louder than 200 adults in a crowded restaurant.
4. If you hook a dog leash over a ceiling fan, the motor is not strong enough to rotate a 42 pound Boy wearing Batman underwear and a Superman cape. It is strong enough, however, if tied to a paint can, to spread paint on all four walls of a 20x20 ft. room.
5. You should not throw baseballs up when the ceiling fan is on. When using a ceiling fan as a bat, you have to throw the ball up a few times before you get a hit. A ceiling fan can hit a baseball a long way.
6. The glass in windows (even double-pane) doesn't stop a baseball hit by a ceiling fan.
7. When you hear the toilet flush and the words "uh oh", it's already too late.
8. Brake fluid mixed with Clorox makes smoke, and lots of it.
9. A six-year old Boy can start a fire with a flint rock even though a 36-year old Man says they can only do it in the movies.
10. Certain Lego's will pass through the digestive tract of a 4- year old Boy.
11. Play dough and microwave should not be used in the same sentence.
12. Super glue is forever.
13. No matter how much Jell-O you put in a swimming pool you still can't walk on water.
14. Pool filters do not like Jell-O.
15. VCR's do not eject "PB & J" sandwiches even though TV commercials show they do.
16. Garbage bags do not make good parachutes.
17. Marbles in gas tanks make lots of noise when driving.
18. You probably DO NOT want to know what that odor is.
19. Always look in the oven before you turn it on; plastic toys do not like ovens.
20. The fire department in Austin , TX has a 5-minute response time.
21. The spin cycle on the washing machine does not make earthworms dizzy.
22. It will, however, make cats dizzy.
23. Cats throw up twice their body wei ght when dizzy.
24. 80% of Women will pass this on to almost all of their friends, with or without kids.
25. 80% of Men who read this will try mixing the Clorox and brake fluid.

Yeah, that bleach and brake fluid mixture caught my eye and I made a mental note.
A friend at work says "girls are evil" Boys get easier to raise as they get older.0 -

I figure that brake fluid must have a hydrocarbon ingredient similar to an ingredient of "Score" hair dressing. The same ingredient is probably in other hair products, but Score was what I was told about.
It is a small, self-starting incindiary bomb. Take a 35mm film canister, and fill it part way, not full up, with powdered chlorine, such as is used in swimming pools. Now fill the lid with Score hair cream. It is thick and will stay put. Put the lid on, but don't shake or upset the canister.
When ready to do your thing, give it a shake and throw it. Or just throw it and the ingredients will mix.0 -
nunn- sounds like something we used to do with a 2 liter pop bottle and small balls of aluminum foil and blue toilet bowl cleaner when we were kids.made a heck of a boom. [:D] 0 -

Crystal draino!

Having raised two boys, I knew most of those. When they were old enough to read I locked up my copy of "Anarchist Cook Book".
I also learned that a golf cart could end up with a cracked and bent frame just by sitting in the shop. Imagine that.0 -
git r done...that is one of the funniest threads I've ever read. I'm still laughing. Thank you very much for a deep belly laugh. Beach 0 -
To that, you can add "The dish washing detergent and the dish WASHER detergent are two different things, and may not be used interchangably." [:p] 24 inches of foam in the entire kitchen. 0 -
Did anyone else have explosive fun with carbide when they were kids?
I'm not going to elaborate because the thoughts of some of my/our exploits with carbide. still cause stinging pains across my butt and legs 40+ years later.[:I][:I]
For you that never heard of or tried it.
Carbide, when small amounts of water is added produces acetylene gas, take it from there.
BTW, my boys never got to use it, they tried tide and gasoline, black powder, smokless powder. and started a few small fires and damaged some sheds with minor explosions , but scared hell out of the horses and cows and grandma0 -

True, I have seen a muffler split by the same process of sitting in the shop.0
