    In all honesty, our campus went "fundamental" in my sophomore year so smoking on campus was not allowed after that. It was interesting to see how many students left for a different school after that. LOL

    Our neighborhood gang had homemade nail guns. They were made from a 1x2, a clothes pin mounted on the side and a long rubber band sourced from golf ball innards.

    One end of the rubber band was attached to the end of the 1x2 and the other end had a loop tied to it. Hook the loop over the head of a drywall nail and clip with the clothes pin.
    Squeeze the trigger and ouch! We played "Surrender or Die"

    We weren't tough, we were delinquents. New houses were being built all around. We would steal the magnets from the cabinets and kick holes in the walls. Not proud. Just dumb kids.

    Hopefully since this is over 50 years ago, the mods won't consider it political. :D

    I’m working on this guitar from 1967.
    Serious brownie points for anybody who can tell me what it is.
