On the Contrary... The cliff hung out... its Kath and Atsali who went above and beyond... literally!!!

Speaking of Wile E. Coyote, my absolute favourite Wile E. Moment is near the end of the Looney Tunes Back in Action movie - which is a LOT better than its reviews and reputation would suggest, when, as a henchman of the villain, he is driving a speeding train that is supposed to run over Timothy Da...

Oh, dear. It looks as if the cart in which our ladies were just launched upwards, went further and landed harder than we might have expected . I guess you did use enough dynamite there, Butch... er, I mean Pablo. I've been avoiding that very line to keep the punjar from falling on my head!!!!

I believe I can flyyyyyyy...... Oh. My. God. I just rolled my eyes so hard I think I tore an occular muscle.. . LOL Like Dusty in the movie Twister after the twister picked up Jo's truck with Dorothy still attached and dropped it in front of Bill's truck... "Well, it DID fly..." It seems ...

Read back and look at the vintage of the boxes in question and the fact that the fuses are burning like a cannon fuse (time fuse). Definitely antique aged boomstoff. A deliberate ambush would have at the very least used snap trap detonators which would have sounded like a mouse trap going off and p...

I think people are missing the point. Although it is a trap, it's rigged as an Automatic Ambush. In other words someone set this up to destroy whoever would be chasing the rigger or anyone just exploring the mine. The mine cart is in fact the proper means to exit the trap, but the girls delayed in ...

Trip wire? Are you all forgetting the dropped oil lamp and leaking oil that caught fire? While Kath tripped, it would have been over the trunk lines or maybe a branch line leading to the explosives. I'm thinking that it has to be time fuse though... Primacord and det cord burn in excess of 20,000 f...

Atsali is your typical 15 year old... fearless up to the point where they realize they've gotten themselves, and most likely someone else, into a situation they can't hope to control... then they just fall apart! This is the very reason why kids shouldn't try to grow up too soon. How many times have...

Yes she is and it is a good sign. This is an excellent example of putting the cart before the force.

*doesn't say a word... just points solemnly at the punjar*

Then giggles my butt off...

yep it does, althought the 100 year old boxes on tnt was just a added bonus to my prediction It's not TNT. That was developed during WWII. Then became the first plastique I think. TNT does not sweat, it will burn and not go off, and stores very nicely for long periods of time. Dynamite on the other...

*wiggles fingers in front of Katherine's face*

This is not the adventure you're looking for... This is NOT the adventure you're looking for...

Heh... Jedi Mind Tricks are the bomb... when they work!!! Sheesh!!! Whatsa meesa sayin'?

I think someone watches too many cartoons....

*walks by the pun jar and notices the tail fins of a Mark 61 nuclear device sticking out*

Ouch! Hot!!! Not as hot as it's about to get Kath... Have you noticed that every decision Atsali makes is so counter to logic it isn't even funny? When is Katherine, as the only responsible adult here, going to put her foot down and say, Hold up there hoss? I thought Bud was the only one who grabbed...

I like snakes (I'm aware that this makes me weird in many people's opinions). I can't say I've smelled a nest of them though, so that little tidbit is good to know. :) On several occasions I had the pleasure of wandering around the stacks and shelves of A Change Of Hobbit in Santa Monica CA, checki...

Why does Atsali have her hand out? Don't tell me Miss Adventure (heh!) doesn't carry some kind of fire starter? (Always in a pocket or bag: pocketknife with tools; lighter; compass; small notebook; pencil . If you don't normally carry one anyway, disposable cell with minutes card; if you have a lit...

Kath... are you positively sure it was a rope? Have you ever smelled a nest of snakes? I have... it has a decidedly acidic stench to it... :shock: Indiana Jones: "Why did it have to be snakes? I hate snakes!" Remember Kath... there's no place like home... there's no place like home... ther...

What I still find amazing is that a modern smartphone has more raw computing power than the entire system (Ground and Command Module) for the Apollo 11 flight (or so I heard). I was born 2 months before that moonshot and I got to see the computer revolution as it happened and I am still mystified b...

kath must roll 2D10 to see if they sneak by successfully. Ash is fined 150XP for over active imagination and making up rules on the fly. Kath rolls. It's a 6-5. Minotaur notices but is confused and asks mother to explain. They make it through the doorway. They find themselves in and area of tiny tw...
