Another vote for Stompers!  I remember getting a RUNNING one tangled in my sister's hair...

I also had some 6x6 off-road type things.

My friend Mike has a ROOM in his house dedicated to his Lego collection.

Last time he inventoried, when he and his wife moved into their current house, he guestimated his collection at roughly $50,000.

That does not include his Star Wars collection.

You, sir, are a horrible person with a very dirty mind.  >:(

Which makes me feel much better about the fact that that was my first thought, too.

After they saw how many injuries they could inflict with lawn darts, evil toy companies invented Clackers to bump up the casualty count.  It was us against them in those dark days.

Here's a cool non-lethal toy that somehow slipped out under the radar.

I'm old school. I'm going with Slinkies, the previously mentioned lawn darts (oh yeah!! [thumbsup]), Daisy Red Rider and all the model cars, boats and planes I built (Revell, etc...) only to be blown to bits with Black Cat firecrackers. I have friends that would have to include Estes rockets on their list. [bow_down]
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.
