Sorry your soapbox has excluded you....
I figured that would happen... condemned to damnation by the devil himself! Bozo!!

Even the thought or mention of GG excludes you..maybe she will prove herself in the future but way too early to tell...her mistakes are genuine and not intentional....
Based on the criteria you seem you have set out, she should have been in from the get go.

.my biggest problem with her is that early on she didn't take good advice from either side of the camp...she just took advice she wanted to hear and used it to support her decisions.
It worked for her...but it won't always work for everyone..
How 'bout potato gun stories? I might get a vote here: Had a pig roast/bluegrass band at the boat dock. Late night the spudzooka comes out. Spuds launched into the boat basin. Ran out of spuds, got some apples and bananas. Launched those too. Not too confident in the aiming, and that became an issue.
Next morning, knock on the door. Owner of the boatyard next door (a good friend) asks me if I had been shooting spuds. I look in the yard over his shoulder, and there is a table with spudzooka, acetylene bottle, and all sorts of vegetable peels.
I tell him, "I think I am busted.". He says yep. I go, well which boats do I need to clean?
That was a miserable morning. My friends can't aim worth crap!! Fortunately, apple and banana are easy to spot the next day. I had to clean about four boats. Fortunately again, no damage.
I did nail the birdhouse on one of the dock piles. No birds in it then (I hoped), but it still has a crunch in the side. My aim was good on that shot (a challenge!!).
Acetylene? That must have some serious range. All I've ever used was White Rain hairspray.
Hairspray?? Ha!!! So safety conscious there. Acetylene is the real deal. I shot a yellow onion through 3/8" plywood. Also shot a spud through hardware cloth and made french fries.
On a serious note, there were some precautions taken to avoid injury should the pvc (reinforced) burst. No joke should that happen.
And then there are trash bag bombs... and how did that clamshell go through the stucco on the shop?
Done the trash bag deal w some farmboys up in North Texas, now that's impressive.
