    Amazing discovery. I wouldn't be able to stop digging. Would imagine this plays havoc with his gardening calendar now though.

    I can't believe he was tinkering with the hand grenade trying to defuse it and holding it to his ear to see if he could hear it explode :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

    I think he would have heard it alright.

    I think that people who try to defuse grenades, and who hold them up to their ear to see if they can hear an explosion, are candidates for the Darwin award. Here in Texas such behaviour is usually preceded by "Hey y'all, look at this!" and often involves beer, bulls, and bruises.
    All we have found digging in the yard are horseshoes. I do hope I don't find the horse.

    That's the type of thing that usually begins with, "Here hold my beer and watch this!"
