Mell the Watermelon blows up- Rick Moyer's video blog for July 4th, 2010

"Dead Mellon Walking!"

I think I saw another shot come from a nearby grassy knoll....

There's something a whole lot more sinister about shooting the thing than there was about simply blowing it up.

[moyer777]

I would have preferred blowing it up with explosives, but they are hard to come by.  :)

[Bromptonboy]

Is that one of those IED's?   (improvised explosive desserts)?

[moyer777]

nope, VIAITIC.

[spoiler]Very illegal and in trouble if caught. :)[/spoiler]

[Feathers]

It makes me wonder where you got hold of them for the last ten years...

O, perhaps I won't ask :)

[moyer777]

I'm not telling, let's just say they came from folks who looked for them.  :)  I told them what I had planned and they generously supplied my needs.  It got a lot harder after 9-11.
