boys and cardboard, guns & weapons



I never was a proponent of guns and other assorted weapons, but leave it to boys to turn harmless sticks and cardboard boxes into armor and battle each other.


I introduce to you the self proclaimed "blockhead #1" & "blockhead #2". Thomas now owns a slingshot to play paintball with his scout friends and Nathan was recently heard asking: "Papa, now when do I get a weapon?" !!! He wants a BBgun rifle for Christmas.
We told him: You'll shoot your eye out!!!! LOL.
Don can't say no because at Walmart where we bought Thomas' slingshot, we found the very same air pump rifle he bought for himself many years ago. He was so happy to remember those days, the boys just about dropped dead hearing their dad used to have a weapon to shoot small birds and small game with.
Nathan ever so practical and logical retorted that he needed a weapon to shoot the pigeons that are infesting the neighbors yard, that he had shot a bbgun and a bow at cub scout and that he would be doing a service. Ah, nathan... Even Legos are a source of inspiration...
