:D :D To funny, I was just looking at some high powered ones the other day.

How about tennis ball cannons. Take 5 (steel) vegetable cans, remove both ends on 4. Then take one and punch a single hole in one end, multiple holes (the old punch pop can openers. Duct tape the 4 together and then the 5th one on the bottom with the single hole on the very bottom. squirt lighter fluid in the top add tennis ball and then place bottom of cannon over open flame. Aim away (don't try this at home kids :eureka: ) Hopefuly you've removed all the burrs inside and the ball slips in and out smoothly, otherwise they have a tendency to seperate in your hands :eek: .

My Dad was a WW II veteran my Mom served in the Women's Army Corp. during Korea. Discipline was a given around our house. It seems like all the other neighborhood kids wanted to spend time at our house. I wonder why? Adults demanding respect perhaps. My Dad told us "teenage" was a new term he was not familiar with. As far as he was concerned there were children and adults. We were children until "he" told us we were adults. As adults we were responsible for all our actions. I think that is the way it should be, clears up alot of issues.

This thread is hilarious. I get to have conversations like this everyday with Sean. I complain about the way things were when I was growning up, and he tells me exactly how good I had it. (I'm 23, and he's 39 for those who don't know). But it's not that the cable tv and telephones weren't there when I was younger, we were just too poor to afford them. For some reason, my parents thought it was more important for us to have electricity and food than it was for my brother and me to have the video games and MTV. Am I wrong or does it seem like today more parents put themselves in debt to make sure their kids have all the "cool" things they "need" so they can be accepted? I remeber when frozen Kool Aid on a toothpick, and a new pair of Wal-Mart jeans was enough to make me happy. We have a 3 year old and another one on the way, I am worried not only for my kids but for us, how are we supposed to keep up?
