when I was a kid we used to make blowguns out of drinking straws. for the dart, do this:1. cut off the end of a shoelace, just keeping the little cylinder part, leaving a little lace on the end.2. shove a sewing needle through the cut off part.3. fray the lace sticking out of the cyclindrical part so it's bigger than the opening in the straw.then, sit on opposite sides of the room and take turns shooting each other. When it's your turn to get hit, close your eyes, because they are not very accurate!

| needles huh? All you needed was to grind up some beetles and dip the needle into the beetle goo, then shoot the baby sitter to render her imobile :)In sixth grade on a school train trip to New York, I shot this kid in the ear with a spit-ball through a staw. It was a direct shot so deep into his ear that he had to go to the hospital to get it removed. That resulted in one of my many meetings with our principal.Be One with the OptimizerTG |

| It’s amazing the stupid things people will do with guns, almost like they pick use a gun and their common sense switches off.I had some friends who had a BB gun fight in their garage. As might have been predicted, one of them got his eye shot out. I guess it was a good thing they didn’t have real guns.Another friend was shot and killed when his father decided to use a rifle to make a hole in the roof of their house for an antenna wire.CODO ERGO SUM |

That's slowly happening by default as the dumb ones kill themselves off.Or course, the one friend was killed by a stupid act of his father, not by his own fault. Using a rifle to make a hole in the roof sounds like something Homer Simpson would do, not a real person.CODO ERGO SUM |

Yes. His father was working on the roof to put up an antenna, and climbed down to go inside to shoot a hole on the roof from the inside. His son was unaware of what he was doing, saw the ladder, climbed up on the roof to see what was going on, and was hit in the head by the bullet.CODO ERGO SUM |

I don't know if there was any legal prosecution. He was still around later, so I don't think anything happened to him. CODO ERGO SUM |

| MVJ, wow...I don't even know what to say about that x.xAs far as dumb people with guns...ugh. I've been raised with guns, CONSTANTLY told about the dangers, and also told how to safely operate many different kinds of guns. There are gun safety classes offered all the time around here, and people as young as ten years old are welcome to join. The idea is that, being a hunting state (Minnesota), most people in my area are going to be exposed to guns. If one is taught at a young age the dangers and the safe ways of handling a gun, it will carry over through adulthood. I, personally, agree. And what is the number one thing I've been taught about gun safety? <b>If you're unsure of your target, don't even aim the gun.</b>I've got 2 handguns (.44 Desert Eagle and a .22) and 2 rifles (.30-06 for deer-hunting and a .22). I'm an avid hunter, enjoy target practicing (debating doing competition shooting), and am a great marksman (in my...not so humble...opinion).I've got a neat range setup at my dad's. Lots of fun!!__________SQL Newbie |

| My favorite stupid gun story does not even involve guns.My mother worked as a nurse at the Student Health Center of our local University. One day, a wounded student came in and sheepishly explained the circumstances of his injury...He and his buddies had been sitting around in their frat house, drinking of course, and one of them happened to have a bullet. So they decided to find out whether it was possible to set the bullet off by holding a match under it. Yup, they'd been drinking. So they put the bullet on an ash tray and held a lit match under it, but, not being complete idiots, of course, they made sure they did not stand in front of the bullet during the experiment.Instead, they stood directly behind the bullet.Well, the bullet did go off, but physics stepped in and did a quick calculation regarding the relative masses of the bullet and its casing, the result being that the bullet travelled about four or five feet and fell harmlessly on the floor, while the casing shot back into the arm the inebriated sophomore holding the match.Ouch.e4 d5 xd5 Nf6 |
