REDNECKS LIKE BLOWING THINGS UP

A 32-year-old Georgia man lost his leg below the knee after trying to blow up his lawnmower with explosives. David Presley set off the explosion near his home in Monroe on Sunday by shooting at the explosive. The explosion sent shrapnel flying, and a large piece of metal took off his leg. The lawnmower was packed with three pounds of an explosive sold under the name Tannerite, a patented combination of ammonium nitrate and aluminium powder that is supplied as two separate powders that are mixed and shaken to produce an explosive, according to local fire chief Craig League. League said the substance is sold in outdoor stores around the area, and has become “extremely popular” in recent years. “It has become quite common for us to run calls involving Tannerite,” he explained. “Typically two to five calls per week.” Meanwhile, the Walton County Sheriff’s Department said on its Facebook page, “Yes, it is legal and no, we can’t make people stop doing it. But why folks, just why?”
* Why? Well, I know one man who’s stumped by that question – David Presley.
* One thing this world does not need is a legal way for people to set off explosions.
* Did I miss something in the Constitution or is this just crazy?
* The only thing that makes sense is wanting to blow up the lawnmower. I think we’ve all been there.
* Of course, I’d blow up my computer first but that’s just me.
* Hell, if I lose one more of these college basketball picks, I might just blow up the TV.
