1. Exploding Watermelons

My teenage daughter is having a birthday party this weekend. She gave me a list of things she wants for it. At the top of the list was watermelons.

"You're going to eat watermelon?" I asked.

"Yeah, but first we're going to explode it."

"What?" I couldn't wait to hear what kind of ridiculous thing she had planned.

"Make sure you get a whole watermelon. And rubber bands. We're going to wrap rubber bands around  the watermelon and watch it explode. It'll be cool."

And messy.

So, ladies and gentlemen, what I will be doing this weekend is watching a bunch of teenagers explode watermelons. If you'd like to see one for yourself, here's a video:
