At Eddie Jansen's grocery store in our village, you could purchase a tube of model glue, about the size of a large tube of toothpaste, for a nickel. Most kids of today think that you can no longer buy it over the counter because some kids sniffed it, getting high. My buddy Dick and I know that is not the true reason. It was perhaps the most combustible material ever invented. I think that is what is in those napalm bombs in war movies. Dick and I bought a large tube one summer night. We walked two block to sit atop a mountain of dirt on the site of a new church abuilding. Overlooking the road, we waited until sundown. When no cars were coming we spread a liberal line of glue across the road and waited for a victim. When the next car was a half block away, I lit it. Little did I think that flames three stories high would result. Screeching tires braking to stop just feet away from the wall of flames. I do not believe that my wide eyes ever beheld such a scene. I did the sensible thing. I ran like hell. Behind me I could hear the cursing of a man, very angry. Although we were innocent occasionally, Dick and I were blamed for these kind of things in Southern View, every time. Ken Kimble 3/1/2008 **************Ideas to please picky eaters.
