What is the British equivalent for "Hey, y'all! Watch this!"? I don't know. Ask MadIvan.
To: mhking
The real tragedy is no one got this on film.
This is a pipebomb.
This is a pipebomb in your mouth.
This is your brain...scattered all about the shed.
Any questions?

Once in a while, I have renewed hope for the human race. Then something like this happens.
Oh the inhumanity (holding head)

What a cliffhanger--they left out the most important part of the story: well, was she impressed?
To: MinuteGal
What was left of his head to perform "a risky medical procedure" on?
Must've been a transplant.

and he died on the same day - 13 July, 2002. He's not dead. He's pining for the Fjords!
Actually, he could still be practicing law somewhere.
To: mhking
His girlfriend, Elizabeth Elliot, said: "My opinion was that Kevin was mucking about but didn't actually mean for the pipe bomb to go off..." He stuck a pipe bomb in his mouth, lit the fuse...and he didn't mean for it to go off? I would attempt to figure out what he did mean it to do, but I'm afraid of serious brain cramps.
To: mhking
So was she impressed?

Kevin Barnes, 20, of Joseph Priestly Court in Daventry, took the device into his mouth and flicked a lighter. . . . Obviously a man of science, conducting an experiment, much like Priestly himself.
To: Richard Kimball
He's dead, Jim.

What was left of his head to perform "a risky medical procedure" on? It was a risky tacks scheme.
To: mhking
"She said complications from a risky medical procedure meant to save him contributed to his death." Sadly, I smell a lawsuit over this. What kind of risky medical procedure did he have that would help his head to blow up -- as opposed to not having a medical procedure done?
"Your honor, if Doctor __________ hadn't performed a ____________ on Kevin, his head wouldn't have blown off -- it just would've been really cool!"

The British equivalent is "Hold muh kidney pie". I thought it was "Hold me pint, mate!"

"Sounds like he should have had a lobotomy years ago."In this case he had an instant lobotomy.
