Ahhh, to have lived in 1924
I was just reading an article about how in 1920, you could buy a child's chemistry set containing ammonium nitrate (the primary ingredient in fertilizer bombs like the one that took out Oklahoma City), potassium nitrate (for making gunpowder), sodium cyanide (think spy suicide capsules), sodium hydroxide (lye), and lead acetate (lead-based sweetener for making candy). I was born in the wrong century I think.

You were born in the right century Joe, but perhaps not the right year.
Lye is still an ingredient in many OTC items--really.
I always wanted a chemistry set for Christmas :)

Oh, we're the whales of the chorus,
We hope you like our show;
We know you're rootin' for us,
but now it's time to... ZZZZZT...ZAP! OW! &%#$*U&*
go, oh, oh, oh, oh....

"Joe" is a total douche bag who is about to get his wienie ass kicked.
I used to electrocute whales when I was a kid: toasted whale smells like roast chicken.
