Bottle Rockets make great semi-guided missles. Take a pair of oven mits, issue one to your friend/enemy. Get the ends of your dads fishing poles, thread the sticks of the rockets through the eyelets and hold the rod end with the oven mitt. Aim..light..FIRE ! I have no idea how I survived without losing an eye or two. Or putting one out for that matter. Those BB gun CO2 bottles, (the little metalic ones) make awesome grenades. Dad was a reloader, so we had loads of gunpowder around to tease fate with. One day we pourded some gunpowder in a spent CO2 bottle, threaded in a firecracker fuse, and stuffed the opening with some paper. Now we though it would be like some cool rocket motor or something. Yeah right ! That thing went off like a bomb ! The neighbor came running out of his house screaming at us. Right next to where I was standing a 1/2" hunk of shrapnel was wedged into the stucco ! That was the only piece we ever found of it. That was before we were 12 !.
