Yep, no need to overcomplicate things. Not really. The cup is lightweight, no damage if it blows off, and still effective as hell.

Alright, next one later this week. Old favorite Italian leather wallet accidentally washed, a few of those fake credit cards that are sent with the pre-approved CC mailings (not in pic) and a couple of magnets - those are a couple that I have access to. Quarter for size reference.

Ohhhh, even one beer can would be a cop magnet. (pun intended)
Neat looking magnets Dave...I suppose one has to be working with computers to get them?

Yeah, don't think I'll go near the beer can for this one.

They come come out of hard drives. Yes, I do work with computers, but you can get them by asking around for any old hard drives. I take a lot of them apart to get the staters. They can be rewound and made into neat electric R/C motors.

It's been done. I don't recall who did it (JackAss or maybe Girls Behaving Badly). They drove around a parking lot as unknowing people tried to chase the pranksters down. Someone actually called 911 and the local PD responded. Needless to say it was funny only to those in on the prank.

i think a child seat could potentially get people hurt. dont do it. imagine some lady maternally "ticking" jumping in front of your car.

i think a pet carrier would be fun, but again, reference "major pet lover" or PETA person.

Jackass did the baby seat in a parking lot, one of the funnier ones they did. Nice to see some people still care, pretty mean when you think about it.

Ok, today the office had pizza for lunch and I went and picked it up. While waiting, I asked about obtaining a small pizza box. The guy gave me one and well, I think I will try it instead of my wallet(old). I just need to dig up enough large magnets and test to see how fast I can go without it flying off.
