"I think we might have put one out as far as Deer Island."

It's all fun and games until somebody loses an Island! These days I often stop and think about how many times I was within mere inches or seconds of a Darwin award...mostly because I never stopped to think about anything in those days.

Quality control my son, follow the ASME Pressure Vessel Code, and ANSI B31. Though I have had retroactive bad dreams about when I was making nitro in my Chem class while I was doing extra Credit unsupervised.

Think of it like this: We all do stupid things when we are kids, those of us that survive those stupid things, don't repeat them and we teach our kids not to do the stupid things that we did.

This is why fathers are important to sons, boys want to do stupid things that can get them killed, girls want to be mommies and grow up and vote for Bubba, for the children.

If you kick a boy in the @ss enough, aversion therapy, He will go off and do something just as stupid as we did, something we never though of.
