This has made me think of things I hadn't in a long time. The homemade ninja stars out of scrap metal were very interesting. My next door neighbor was a tinkerer and made all kinds of weird shite. He even made a mini guillotine. Did you know you can make a pretty mean poison from boiling down a pack of cigarette tobacco into a paste?

I coulda made a noose in my sleep at an early age. I suppose Clint Eastwood movies were to blame. Wouldn't last a day in elementary school these days.

Yea, nicotine is quite poisonous. There used to be a product called Black Leaf 40 that was a nicotine alkaloid. Guys that fight chickens will pay a lot of money for it to keep mites off their birds.

I also had a Benjamin .22 air rifle. I remember having a hard time finding .22 pellets in our small town. Everything was .177
