".....attaching them to propane tanks"??

Would those be the the small variety that are found under household grills, or the large variety which are found at railroad depots and fuel storage facilities?

Poisonous snakes?
Pipe bombs? Attached to propane tanks?

A troubled fellow. Perhaps being crippled will set him straight.

That would probably be that big propane tank they heat the house with.

The standard response is: "it's a guy thing, you wouldn't understand."
That's really all there is to it.

I was one of those guys. Sign of normal male development IMHO.

There's no greater thrill at a young age than killing your first duck with a BB gun or throwing rocks at passing cars knowing full well that if Dad found out he'd kick your bloody arse.
