Thanks for reminding me. When I was a little kid, my older brother and his friends had me hold on to a plastic toy handgrenade as they placed a rather big firecracker in the hole in the bottom of it, and then lit it. The problem was, they took off running so fast, I really couldn't hear what they were yelling, so I just stood there and took it. BOOM! Yup, Marine Corps material for sure... my future was sealed! ;) Quoting Canopus56 <canopus56@yahoo.com>:
Unfortunately, I've already blown up all of my models during my misspent youth, so I don't have anything to use an oversized cherry bomb on.

Maybe we can commission Kurt to do that... ;) That ought to be right up his alley! What do you say Canopus?

You know, though, if someone had some time on their hands, it might be moderately interesting to know just how many match heads and sparklers it would take to orbit a 12-lb. bowling ball...
