1. This is really scary.
Over 20 minutes and no reply. You are alone. All other DUers have landmines, apparently.
Don't tell Agent Mike. Oops!

7. Can't help you on the landmines, but what about a couple of cannons?

I'm seriously thinking about buying a couple of these artilery pieces for the front lawn. But of course, they have to be in working order;)

12. And something for that powder to propel
What good is the bang if there's no bite to it:evilgrin:

Yes, I'm one of those pyromanical, big noise type of people. A couple of cousins and I made a little signal cannon when we were kids, and still fire it off every Fourth of July a during the annual pyro festival, aka fireworks display.

17. Funny you mention that, but I inheireted a sack of lead balls!
Along with the rest of my father's firearms. One of them is an 1851 muzzle loader, hence the sack of lead balls(50 cal) And being that I some scrap lead hanging around, and the old bullet mold, hey, canister shot here we come.

Why do I get the sneaking suspicion that I'm going to be getting a Homeland Security or BATF visit now:scared:

23. My lawn is full of 'em.
Damn pesky Girlscouts trying to sell me "cookies". I know those things are laced with arsenic. And I suspect that mailman is up to no good. May be trying to deliver me anthrax disguised as the phone bill. Not to mention the f@%#&*g meter reader!!!
