thanks for the back posts! i love webmasters who hear the people and give them what they want, it's just too rare.

thats a cool catapult they've made. if you want to see something cooler you should check out what firemen use on grass fires to control them. they use these cool cannons that have balls similar to paint balls in them that are filled with flammable liquid that ignites on impact. often times these are mounted on helicopters and the firemen can fly around shooting their "fire balls" down onto the hills in an effort to control grass fires. (suffocating and directing the flames)

HA,I like that one. Notice the fuel can to the right of pile,next to tree. The way it "poofs" when ignited must be gasoline. You would never want to stand there and try to lite that pile with matches. Ooo noo I just notice some thing....that clip is a fake...you can see where they made the cut.

WHO IN THE HELL IS STEVE?

I believe Steve is a clipaday regular who goes under an unidentified alias and was upset that Mr. Clipaday went on vacation over the Thanksgiving Holiday. In return Mr. Clipaday complied in good faith with the outcries of his fellow Clipadaywarriors by making good on the Clip A Day name by publishing the back posts. That's my take anyway.
