In Topic: High School Pranks...

One of the best pranks I've ever heard of (HEARD of, not done myself), was this: For a few months, this guy would show up at work early, open up his co-worker's phone handset, tape a small weight inside, then close it again. The increments were small enough that the guy never noticed. He would just pick up the phone as quickly as ever. After a while, the phone was a good 2 or 3 pounds heavier than normal. Finally, he took all the weights out. Sure enough, first phone call of the day, this fellow grabbed the phone and bashed himself in the face!

I love pranks like that.

You might want to head on over to Prank.org

Not everything is great there, but there are certainly a lot of ideas floating around.

A combustion pistol would not be dangerous, unless you were a complete idiot with it.

It wouldn't be much more compact than any other design, though, and I wouldn't count on the fuel staying mixed for very long.

Got a lot of sleet, then some snow, that melted, then froze over, then more snow. Result: First snow day in like 5 years. Unfortunately, ice coated all the tree branches, knocking many down. The individual power and phone lines to my house got knocked out, then the transformer exploded. My parents decided to move us into a hotel until we can heat the house again, because it's getting pretty cold at night. Not my decision, but I'm not complaining. Free hot breakfast.

Alright, now here's a REAL myth, one that any HQ readers will agree is worth proving. A restrictor, o-ring, and spring modded 100'-110' average NiteFinder. There was one trustworthy member who posted a 100' NF, whose name escapes me right now. I don't doubt it shot 100', but I still think that the sheer volume of range claims for this gun merits real "urban myth" status.

PEX uses the CTS system, so its sizes are pretty close to those of CPVC. That should make it pretty easy to compare, as I'm sure you've all used CPVC.
