    I still think that's why a lot of people don't like Ben Affleck because of him and his spanking paddle in dazed and confused !

    Absolutely not sure I want to know. That sort of piece would find a market though. Not one I really want to know about, but a market.

    I agree with Ruth. That would definitely find a market.

    I wouldn't want to belong to a club that used something like this. Seems too juvenile to me. But yes, someone out there would want one.

    I know zilch about guns and cartridges. Would it be difficult to find those now and also, sale to use?

    My Pappy was a Mason...an' of course never divulged any of the secret inner workings of Lodge business.
    But it's interesting to consider him being hazed by such a contraption. It occurs to me that he was strongly opposed to 'practical jokes', warning my brother an' me against even thinking about such pranks. We always wondered why...maybe it had to do with such an event in his personal history?
    Y'know, a Whoopee Cushion is pretty tame by comparison!

    What I find amusing is you can buy one and it includes 50 cartridges. If you want an additional 50 cartridges they are not mailable. That is pretty funny to me..

    You could have just as much fun with 'Pull my finger!'

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Wow, odd entertainment!

    I'm wondering what the "Stuffed Club" is in the ad. Is it the stuffed part at the end of the Spanker? Or maybe something that was illustrated on the next page?
