Tom, my dad made acetylene balloons for parties. Only he knew which ones were which on the patio. Mom would get mad so he'd blow one up near her and the laughs would start.

I did some torch silver soldering for a while. we had coffee cans on the bench with water for keeping our "prods" clean of flux. If someone was bothering me I would fill a can upside-down and when they'd come back to annoy me I'd wave the torch past a hole. After the second time I moved the fluorescent lights a foot or so. Lots of can dents over my bench!
