Sysadmin Appreciation Day TOYS Friday July 29

[Dazed_75]

Wow!  I could have used some of that stuff "back in the day".  The rubber
band gun looks really cool, but kind of wimpy too.  We used to take 6 of
those 1/2" wide by 5" long rubber bands to make a sling (2 bands wide and 3
long) to shoot those rubber grommets used to hold the tape into computer
tape reels at each other.  I could leave a welt from 15' away.

For those kids who do not remember such things the grommets were made of
very dense foam rubber and were about 1"x1/2"x1/4".  We used them by wedging
them into the tape reel to keep the tape from unraveling.  Our battle area
was the entire computer room and related storage area (call it 2/3 of a
floor of a building a block long).
