They can have my potato cannon when they pry my cold dead, sticky with Aqua-Net fingers off the PVC.

I've really got to get a new igniter for my old "Seigemaster 2000" spudzooka. It's been too long.

Is that one of those .50 caliber sniper spudguns?

Just when 17-year-old Daniel Berry's life had found new light, he must find his way in the dark.

And with that turkey of an opening sentence, I just knew I was gonna be in for a maudlin treatment.

So the last thing he'll remember seeing is a frog with a terrified look on it's face getting closer....and closer....and closer....

Just damn.

If you want on the new list, FReepmail me. This IS a high-volume PING list...

Can one identify the specific 'spudgun' used by noting the scratches on the bullet? Does each one have unique markings?

Hmmm, are spudguns rifled?

If I make a spudgun must I provide a spud (or frog) to the feds for the databank?

If this kid had anything to do with putting the frog in the gun, I say good on the frog.

Berry had an American dream too.

Is this a Dave Barry column? It sure has Dave Barry's sense of melodrama and sarcasm.

What calliber of frog was used? Maybe it was the evil 2.230 caliber frog which is far more than anyone needs for home defense or hunting.

Was it a jacketed frog or worse yet a hydroshock frog?

Is it better to use PVC pipe or ABS pipe when making one of these?

Don't be put off by the complaints that this was posted before.

In another month, or so, the replies it will receive will only get better.

The guy just missed winning a Darwin Award, and we're supposed to be sorry for him? Those who're dumb enough to look down the barrels of loaded guns usually don't have very long life spans.

Does that say "BRUT Force" ? Isn't Brut the after shave that Joe Namath used to pitch?

If you outlaw spud guns, only frogs will have them. Or something like that.

This seems to be more of a crude rocket launcher than a gun though. I am glad I am not a kid anymore. I could get into alot of trouble with one of these.

Another blinded an eye of a Pennsylvania house painter.

As opposed to blinding his shin?
