11-year old "engineer" needs counseling

That's why I only use green wire for projects. No red or blue wire = no bomb.

Some high school kids drive to school.

The bomb goes off while you're building it.

You will if you cremate 'em first ;-)

I took a 5" scope tube to school, to give to another student in the late '60s. Some idiots tried to have me thrown off the bus because "It will explode and kill everyone." the driver told them to shut up and sit down, then mumbled, "Damned Idiots!"

Too cheap to spring for the rope?

Offer them high paying jobs in Haiti. They are too stupid to live through the next earthquake.

When I was in high school the physics teachers used to charge up capacitors & leave them lying around on the lab benches for the first year students. One of my buddies got wise to this ahead of time & sprayed his fingertips with clear acrylic before class. Went in, picked up the cap, waited for the dissappointed look on teach's face then handed it over to him.

Priceless :>

Use a bigger truck so you get more DPG! (Drag Per Gallon) :)

Elmer's glue works too. The layers are pretty clear for a while. You can show how you are touching it, and he will be sure it has been depleted. Priceless is the right word.

Enron was not as big as they claimed to be.

Well, not entirely not dangerous.

How do you get any signals through if they're all ground wires? ;-)

That's a really good one!

I had a Plane Geometry instructor who was perpetually bumming a stick of gum... until I loaded a stick with "red hots" ;-) ...Jim Thompson

You ain't real bright.

They were not in death, but while they thrived, they thrived.

Firmly grounded in reality. No signal above zero required for fool communications.

If they still go off, so does the explosive package. The detonation circuit is what ALL bomb disposal folks go after.

Many have protections (BOOM) against det cap removal built into them. How would you know?

He doesn't look like a madman, he looks like your regular blue-collar Joe, perhaps tending towards the obnoxious side in this case, but not generally dangerous.

I dislike those d*mn bulkhead seats.. lots of leg room for long-haul, but they won't let you keep your stuff at hand.

The damned idiots today wouldn't even recognize the implosion risk, then they'd freak out.
