A friend sent me a link to this picture today at work.

The caption reads:

U.S Marine Lt. John Hood from Athens, Ga., looks through the sights of an home made Iraqi multiple rocket launcher after Marines from the 1st Battalion 5th Marine Regiment found large cashes of weapons in Fallujah, Wednesday, April 14, 2004.(AP Photo/John Moore)

The picture just goes to show you how ingenious some daring young inventors can be when they put their minds to something

See it: Here

I wouldn't have to balls to try it, but you have to admire the sheer ingenuity of some people. Very Happy

I want to build one of those, and fire angry mellons at the world outside my window.

Yes. Let's encourage these guys to change their shortsighted ways. You write the fellow with the launcher. I'll write Lockheed Martin.

So that's where all that tubing went!!!!! Not for uranium enrichment programs, but for Everyman's backyard shed project. I wonder if they all get Boy Scout badges?
