Exclamation Got This in an Email Today!

I have mixed emotions about posting this at all--Feel the warning should be noted but on other hand it may encourage 'idiots' to try it! Just hoping that those kind of idiots don't frequent this dog forum as a rule and that people who are dog lovers are the 'best' people and wouldn't be doing such a thing---Just be aware of who you are talking to about this!

[B][Subject: Everyone you know should be warned about this hazard..

The world is going nuts, and it only takes one to turn up in your neighborhood.

Do watch the video at the end of the Snopes article.

snopes.com: Bottle Bombs

Read this and then click the snopes link for more info and a video!

Don't pick up any plastic bottles that may be laying in your yards, in your mailbox, etc.
Click on the Snopes web page below to watch the video.
Good safety info that I never heard of; be careful and watch the video if you don't believe it.

Pay attention to this.

1. a plastic bottle with a cap.
2. a little Drano.
3. a little water.
4. a small piece of foil.
5. Disturb it by moving it; and BOOM!!
6. No fingers left and other serious effects to your face, eyes, etc..

People are finding these bombs in mailboxes and in their yards, just waiting for you to pick it up intending to put it in the trash.
But, you'll never make it!!! It takes about 30 seconds to blow
after you move the thing.

See "SNOPES" below....it's true. This happened a few days
ago...April 27, 2010 as a matter of fact.

It is true. I have seen and heard of these. My grandson saw it on youtube as to how to make it. I will once again stress how dangerous they are and the consequences.
