The only reason a real M-80 would ignite under water is because the
cardboard tube was NOT full of flash powder, but also contained air.

No tickie, no laundry. Pretty simple.

It ain't an SRB, dip***.

You couldn't look this stupid, this many times, unless you really
wanted to. So, why? Actually, I know why.

Yep. MinimumDong is attention-deprived. And you persist in filling
his need :-(

No, he's afraid, and I'm trying to shape him up. It probably won't
work, because he hasn't the balls to face reality. Being stuck at
home, post-op, there's not a lot to do.

Post-op?? What? Frontal lobotomy ?:-)

Damn near. A couple of docs spent 4.5 hours on Wednesday removing my
ear, fixing the stuff underneath, and sewing it back on. I hope not
too many neurons escaped through the drain. Just this morning I made
it out to a decent, more than decent actually, cafe. I missed M&P's
annual St Patty's Day Corned Beef and Black&Tan Gathering in Point
Reyes Station, but they did send me a care package. She works for
Cowgirl Creamery, so I missed some good cheeses, too.

I didn't know that one of the side effects of general anasthesia is
initial muscle seizures, before the paralysis. Next day it felt like
I'd been in a car wreck. That part was worse than the ear thing,
actually.

And the worst news is that my company can apparently function just
fine without me!

Mo was funny. She said "Thank you for not dying."
