The opposite is also true...
Indeed it is.

you made a post that appeals to everyone - not everyone may have an opinion on cannon X, but pretty much everyone knows how old they are :wink:

loooooool that's right. But...i also find that getting 7 coment on a cannon is pretty small count comparing to here.

pretty sure it doesn't end... just gets more sophisticated... I remember when burning legos was the coolest thing ever.

Ever wonder we 50yr. old men act like 5 yr olds? Quite simple boys are boys and stay that way.I just so happens that the toys of destruction get bigger.Like when my Dad lit off a bonfire made out of 40 pine trees(1ft.wide and up),Old tires,spare oil, and a load of diesel.Coolest thing ever.Even the fire department thought so :D At 5 I threw my dad's specialty tools overboard(he was a boat mechanic),things don't change,I just happen to destroy his specialty tools now days(purely by accident).

Frankrede- She picked me. I did'nt hit on her, I even avoided her.
The age difference is nothing, we have simalar interests and got along quite well. We went tuna fishing on my boat and caught a 660lb. blue fin. The problem was my drinking. I'm an alcholic in recovery.
I could not give up drinking to excess and she left me. Since then I went to re-hab and have been sober for 22 months.
Last fall I found this site and got into building launchers. I've built 7 , that's why I named my last one L7.
This site has helped my to stay sober by having a hobbie to occupy some time during the cold winter months. I have also learned loads about computers by posting pics and such
.
It has been fun hanging around with some pretty cool young guys and gals.
Thanks ,you have helped me more than you will ever know.

Spudgun therapy, now that *would* make a great article some day - it would be nice to see the media pick up on the positive aspects of this hobby for a change :)
