Normally I don't tell stories about the antics of my buddy KC. Y'see, he's always up to something, and if I want to start recording his hijinks I'd need a whole other blog. But his latest tomfoolery has me thinking about its possibilities and consequences.

Y'see, KC has a bus. You know, sleeps eight, kitchen, bathroom, DVD with Stereo Surround, etc etc. If you knew this guy, the fact that he's 24 and owns a city bus wouldn't be in the least surprising. But he really outdid himself when he mounted a train horn on it.

Think about how far away you can hear a train's horn as it toots through town. Those fuckers can honk. KC said when he first blew it, it nearly shook the shit out of him, literally. I can't imagine when he could blast this thing and not cause some serious trouble.

If he honked it in traffic on the highway, all cars in the immediate vicinity would wreck into the ditch. I can even see it shattering windows. My mind immediately turned to activist uses, as any outdoor event could be seriously disrupted with this thing. I found a website about a guy who has one on his truck, and he honks it at high school football games when the home team scores. He also mentions that owning one requires a lot of restraint. KC doesn't have a lot of restraint.

So I'm wondering two things: 1) How illegal is this, and what is illegal- possession? Honking? Honking in traffic? 2) What are some fun things that could be done with this doohickey? The ol' wake-em-up is a classic, especially if it was combined with a flashlight shining in the victim's eyes.

I'm sure you can come up with something evil to do.
