Heck Bunk, APP and Poop both have two P's and both stink.  Close enough?

OK Abilene you got me there but loading APP is easy just pour it out of the bottle.
Poop on the other hand, (which is nasty) you need to scoop it up and pack it in the case a messy process at least.
Especially in green grass time.
I would expect Coffinmaker to add a word of wisdom here or at least a word of something.

Probably "or something"   ;D

I do have one can of APP on the shelf, but not the usual stuff.  I was in Cabelas 5 years ago or so and saw a can of APP behind the counter with "SALE - $13.95" or something like that.  I thought I oughta grab it, as I had used APP in the past and you never know when I might want to load up some ammo with no lube for one reason or another.  Wasn't until I got home I noticed it was APP STICKS !  Not sure what I'll ever do with those.

Yep   ::)   APP Stiyx are be quite useful.  Just not sure .... for what  :o  Although I suppose one could lay them end to end down the driveway and set one end alight and time the flame propagation to the other end??  Or lay them out in a circle and set one side alight and see how long it takes to get to the other side of the circle.  Or set them up on the porch and every time some tiny creetin rings the bell to say "Trix or Treats" set one alight and see how fast the little nuisances can run for the street.

Just some applicable thoughts.

Nothing special.

Nor actually appropriate.

If you had a non-metallic mortar and pestle you could return the styx to powder form.

Or not.

 ;D

And that is what I'll most likely do one of these days.  The stix were so expensive per ounce that it will be some expensive powder, but it beats sitting on the shelf!  Hopefully they won't just turn to dust when ground up.
