So, you know that hole in the ozone? My cousin and I are responsible for about half of it! He used to be a garbage man, and he would keep anything that looked like it would blow up good when shot. Every couple of months or so, we'd take this stash of spray cans, TV tubes, jars, fire extinguishers, electronics, etc. to an ababdoned dump and have at it.
Full gallons of paint were fun. A huge fire extinguisher went ariborn when hit w/ a .308. My cousin made an alarm clock go off with his .22, and turned it off with a follow up shot.
I'd say we shot just about anything that looked fun to shoot. Sorry, environment! I don't think I'd ever do anything like that again. Should have known better back then!

Is it watermelon season allready? Sheesh! and I didnt even get a watermelon tag. I would have gotten a nice one last year but I spooked him in my stalk and he rolled away. Maybe this year! EJ

drillin man, you have any trouble with deer and your mellons, i tried some a few years back and the deer would bust em up like crazy
There's so much feed for deer around here (includeing in the food plots i plant) that keeping them out of the veggies ect.. is no problem at all...
It's the "deer" around here that get ate!!!

Back a few years ago a couple friends and myself shot one of the powder type fire extingishers. It was a calm day and we had it up on top of the wood pile in the back lot of his farm. I hit it at like 10 yards with my .40S&W, turned around and my biddies are rolling on the ground laughing, at which time I discoverd this awful taste in my mouth. The thing exploded all over the place and I musta looked like Lucy Ball from the baking episode cause I was white as a ghost all over. took forever to get that taste out of my mouth.[8D]
