Taser w/disposable camera

I was reading a post on how to make a taser from a disposable camera. And this reminded me of a long time ago when Jamie and I figured out how to do this. So we found a disposable camera on the ground at Bogey's , and we decided to break it to use the capacitor to shock people. It was great fun. I think Caroline Capstick was there. If you are reading this and remember getting shocked or being there let me know.

"To make an extremely cheap taser all you need to do is take apart a disposable camera and keep the green card. Then put a wire on the little metal part that sticks out next to the capacitor (the black thing), and put another wire somewhere else (just about anywhere will do as long as it touches metal). Also the two wires that connect capacitor to the rest of the camera are quite good. To charge the taser just press the button that charges the flash. It is a good idea to put tape over the rest of the taser so you don't shock yourself. This taser won't be anywhere near as good as a professional one but it works." - totse.com

If you know more than 10 of these you should be ashamed of your lazy abbreviatifinity.

Also why I hate our legal system. Michael Jackson walks free, Grokster loses in court, and now a woman sues NASA.
