Elon on Joe Rogan

Estes rockets were popular when I was in grade school. Everyone got to build one, and then we had launch day out in the baseball field. One kid couldn't figure out how to assemble the parachute, said #*^@#* it, and glued the nose cone to the body. It went straight up, and then straight back down, screaming towards earth. Everyone scattered, except for one of the teachers, who was busy flirting with a cute student teacher. It missed both of their heads by about 1 foot, and buried itself in the dirt up to the fins.

Fun times!
 
Anyone remember pichloe Pete’s. You know the ones that whistle? The ones you beat with a hammer and wrap with duct tape then they blow up. Which is followed by a 1000 word essay and 100 hours of community service. Those ones where awesome
That sounds too high tech. We took rolls of caps, poked each gun powder pouch with a needle, folded it up, and wrapped it with electric tape with a match for the fuse. Poor man's cherry bomb right there!
 
Did you have a bbq ignition? I really thought mine was fancy with the push to start. I built it with a y so you didn’t spray directly on it and gum the thing up.
Yeah, a bbq push starter and a Coleman lantern sparker in the tail cap as a failsafe. Now I kinda feel bad for the people that bought those grills from HD and realized it was missing the igniter after they got it home.

You definitely had the sticky fingers haha. It was like a extra 20 bucks for that ignition totally worth jt
