Show And Tell Fail
So what have you brought for show and tell today little girl. This miss. Run, children , run!!!! A year 5 girl didn’t get the reaction she was hoping for when she brought a WWII hand grenade to school for show and tell. The school and nearby homes were evacuated and bomb experts from the Royal Australian Air Force were called in. The deadly device was eventually removed and is currently being disposed of.

Hey Mommy, Look What The Easter Bunny left
You know what I hate? When a group of little kiddies go on an Easter egg hunt and find a hand grenade. I really friggin hate that! The Somerset Easter hunt was called off when a parent spotted a three year old standing on it. Oh my, what a nightmare, imagine trying to stop an Easter egg hunt! Now that would have ended in tears! Anywho, bomb squad arrived and blew it up.

Nearly Spitting Chips
You know what I hate? When you buy a bag of potatoes from a grocery store in Chiclana de la Frontera (Spain) and discover one of your spuds is a friggin World War II hand grenade. I really friggin hate that! The grenade was petrified and looked like a potato, just in case you were wondering. The spuds were havested from a field on the French/Belgium border, presumably an old battlefield.

That Could Have Been A Blast
Why is it I never find cool stuff in the crap I buy? Some woman in North Carolina found a live grenade in the drawer of an antique sewing machine she purchased. Yes indeedy, the Seymour Johnson Air force Base Explosive Ordnance Disposal Unit were called in and they confirmed it was a live German grenade from WWI.
