Re: What is this????
I was a young single Navy man in those days and lived in a mobile home. Well, I saw one burn down one night in about 4 minutes so when the fella came around selling those I bought some and they were not cheap but I figured if anything would wake you up from a night on the town these would. Me and some buddies got to drinking one night and decided to play with one. Huge mistake! You have to use the buddy system to wind the thing up too once it ran down. If anyone screwed up and let it accidentally go it would have to run down all the way again.
"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things; the decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks nothing is worth a war, is worse. A man who has nothing which he cares more about than he does about his personal safety is a miserable creature who has no chance at being free, unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
