I think you better know the worst case scenario
I knew a guy in college who was into catching and keeping poisonous snakes. I think his life's ambition was to climb K2.
I didn't start blowing things up until I got to college. I teamed up with a Chemistry major and we made some *really* impressive explosives/fireworks. We stopped after we blew out all the windows in the courtyard one night and got the police called on us.

I blew up stuff too. I stopped after a mishap involving a model rocket (the real big kind), a farmers field, and lots of fire trucks.

Here's a question for the lawyers/intellectual property types on the blog: Is it legal to post an obviously doctored spoof of public figures (let's say, for example, Google co-Founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page).
I say it's perfectly legal and First Amendment-protected free speech, as long as it's (a) not mis-represented as real, and (b) not used commercially (to make a profit) without the consent of the person(s) being represented. Peter P disagrees with me. If he's right, I guess I could be in a lot of trouble.
Who's right?
