Quoted from Rezdog:[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Squirt Guns, I got ratted out in 7th grade for squirting the incandescent lights in the school. 250 maybe 300 watt bulbs. 2 squirts max until they shattered.
Then the plywood tune-up.

Quoted from bssbllr:I remember seeing these in a barrel near the door of our auto parts store back in the day. Cherry Bomb muffler.

I had them on my GTO. Right off the header collector, no pipes at all. Don`t know why I even bothered to put in an AM/FM cassette player...

Quoted from mooch:I had this round Panasonic radio when I was in high school in the early 70s. I had a white one. It looked cool, but I hardly ever used it.

I also had the white one.

Quoted from zr11990:In that middle pic it looks like the blades are bent forward.
Every pic I ever took that was digital with aircraft prop in it. The prop looks bent. Not a photography kinda person, my thoughts are a digital camera scans lines progressively. Not the whole pic at one time. So as the the camera scans the prop is still turning something 2500 rpm. The prop moves a bit between each scan line.
I could be totally off base here, just my thoughts.

Quoted from Atari_Daze:Anyone else have a 'high' dive at the neighborhood pool?
We had one for a while, then when insurance got too high, we just had two low dives. [quoted image]
Ever ride your unicycle off the high board? That seemed to make the pool manager grouchy.

Quoted from zombywoof:I guess my first ‘firework’ would be these. I was so young that I don’t even remember my age. These were followed by sparklers, smoke bombs, and an ever increasing litany of explosives. I’m just glad I still have 10 fingers.

I remember taking the roll of caps, place them on the sidewalk. Then jump on them with my pogo stick. Made a pretty good bang.

Quoted from mooch:In my high school cafeteria, they sold little cups of Jell-O cut into cubes.
My buddies and I would amuse ourselves by flinging the cubes up to the high ceiling where they would often stick.
We stuck so many to the ceiling, but they were usually gone the next day.
I figured that either: (1.) The Jell-O cubes fell later on random student victims or (2.) An infuriated school janitor climbed a ladder nightly to scrape Jell-O off the ceiling.
[quoted image]
I got caught sticking lima beans to the cafetera ceiling in second grade. I used the spoon as an improvised catipult.
As many times as Little Joe was shot in the shoulder, for some reason there was never a hole in his green jacket.
