Flatulence can be bottled...

                                                                   It's true.
             This is something we discovered as teenagers. I will not go into details.
                  They can then be stored, capped of course, in the freezer.
                    Snuck into school and gently uncapped then placed upon a radiator.
                               In the winter. In an enclosed classroom.
                        The previously condensed gas begins to warm and waft upwards. The radiator is at a nearly perfect horizontal height to disperse the invisible cloud evenly thru out the enclosed area.
      None of the School staff sees this as an inquisitive and engaging experiment.
                                             I will not go into the details...
                       No matter the size of the tarp you choose, you cannot achieve flight simulating the actions of a flying squirrel.
                       I will not go into details...
                   Let it suffice us to say that climbing forty feet onto a large limb in a tree and tying each tarp corner to corresponding wrists and ankles does not come close to the precise and intricate design of that majestic flying rodent...
                It should be stated that the only real function said tarp does is pull all four limbs out ferociously and equally, in a completely unwilling spread eagle...
             There have been single moments of common sense in my life.  One of them was to do this above water. What I had thoroughly failed to consider was the force of impact.
    Fact: You actually do bounce on water. Twice.
               I will skip the details..
      Just remember, trying to swim back towards shore breathless and tied to a tarp turns into a complicated set of actions. Arm stroke, complete involuntary twirl. Another arm stroke . Repeat as necessary....
                Shopping carts are indeed capable of going 40 M.P.H. with someone inside..
                     Once again, I will skip the details.
                 What should be remembered is that a motor vehicle must be involved and  it has to have both a front and rear window and a front and rear passenger to hold the carts front and back.
     As you sit inside the cart, remember to put your fingers thru the cart bottom and clench with all your strength. The framing protects your fingers as you crouch as low as possible, and the sides will bend inward on impact to protect you.
           It is better to have friends that will pry you out before the mall security personnel arrive than those who won't...
        I think that is more than enough detail, don't you? 
             You can completely freak out people swimming in the river at night with semi inflated garbage bag corners situated to resemble shark fins, if they had recently watched the movie " Jaws".
                                 Marshmallows left for 12 years become rock hard and explode on impact when fired from a wrist rocket sling shot when they hit ANY body part, even extremely delicate ones...
     I definitely will not go into details on that one...
         Parents do not appreciate coming home to sections of different colored siding than was originally installed two years before. A brand new chemistry set that was smuggled into the house and scientific curiosity are not accepted excuses. Not by a long shot....
                I figured I would write about generalities, for once...
