Did you know when you pinched the end of a piccolo pete so explodes, and stick that end in a seat tube, and then drop a marble in the other side that marble will go through a stop sign?

yes. BTDT...

Now that sounds preety good, thankfully I have nephews and therefor still have an excuse to try it!

dated a girl back in college for 2 years too long............ but her brother was a full on pyro.

Baked down his own charcoal from wood ash and added a concoction of saltpeter, and made his own gunpowder from scratch, he loved to blow stuff up......in his early days he did the Oxy-Acety bombs with hefty sacks, until due to static electricity one exploded in his hands, and they had to rush him to the ER room with molten hefty sack plastic melted/imbedded into his face/hands/body.

Never really connected well with him, as he knew I WAS boinking his sister in his own bedroom, but she was a hot young looking Vanna White, just 2 years 2 months 2 days too long of psycho love/hate.
