Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

I wish I had a train horn yesterday. Some asshat in a black Sequoia cut me off from the shoulder. If I were 10 years younger I would have followed this jerk and explained to them the error of their ways. I wish I had an rpg launcher, or at least a paintball gun, mounted on my car.
I wanted to put the air horn from a semi-truck on my motorcycle. The little ^meep^ ^meep^ button Kawasaki installed wasn't capable of striking sufficient terror into the iPhone user behind the wheel of your average crossover.
Grade 10 a buddy got a free old Datsun B210. It needed a lot of work to get a road safety and we spent a lot of time at an auto-yard. The old guy there gave us an old train horn. It took some work to find a way to mount it and the compressor motor was 24 or 36 or something volts so we had to build something to adapt it but he got a tiny car with a really big horn.
