great post. sounds like how I grew up. I was born 6/22/82. My family were aplle farmers, so I was always on big tractors, in and out of spray tanks ( I would drop a screwdriver in there from time to time), and I ate all those apples with the allar on them, still kicking stong!



Holy sheet! I was born a day before you!

back on topic, i distinctly remember a trick we used to play in my uncles shop. Goes something like this: One guy would leave to put tires in "the pile" in the back of the parking lot. The rest of us would gather around my uncle who had fashioned a tennis ball cannon out of some old exhaust piping. He would put the tennis ball in one end, and then turn on (but not light) the acetylene torch and let the gas flow into a hole he had drilled into the opposite end of the pipe. "ready...wait till he bends over, jimmy...ok....aim...hold it steady now...light the match!" "POP...whhhhhooooo...BANG! YEAAAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHHH"

oh, the fun we had!



Edit:
Hose water rocks!!
