That McPhee Spudgun. Ptooey. I went over to Ken's yesterday. Spudguns are SUPPOSED to have an element that scares the hell out of spouses and sensible people. The ALWAYS involve large tubes and vaporizing velocities and recoil.

When said potato strikes an object, you should see only dust, and ray scattering.

They're big enough you can't turn them around without watching.

(PS: Thanks for the LA stuff. I didn't mean you needed to look. But the trip you discussed, I'm bringing that up.)

PS: A properly fired spud, moves so fast, it leaves no mark, no imprint, of moisture. <eom>
