No. I built crossbows and sold them to neighbourhood kids. Thankfully I never fired one at another person, even though there were quite a few temptations to do so.

My dad died from cancer when I was 8.

Wave machine was something else.

Why is it that I remember it being much hotter when I was a kid,
might be because I had the time to enjoy it.
