Explosions detonated in Cavendish, Idaho
The
typically tranquil community of Teakean-Cavendish will be shaken up as over 200
people gather in North Central Idaho for a weekend of shooting at exploding
targets, during the 8th annual Boomershoot, April 29-May 1, 2005. Featured on May 1st is the debut of The Big
Blowup, an explosives therapy service sold via eBay.
”The Big Blowup helps people destroy their pain, and symbols of their pain.
Mementos will be blown up and documented for a small fee,” says Joe Huffman,
Boomershoot Director. “Consider it cheap therapy.”
For those whom can’t attend
Boomershoot, The Big Blowup provides an opportunity to experience the
thrilling, healing power of explosives from afar. In return for their payment,
before and after photos of mementos/explosions will be emailed to Big Blowup
participants, after their objects are detonated on May 1. Link to eBay auction:

”We’re selling explosure: the art of explosives, disposal, closure, and
exposure,” says Huffman. “It’s gratifying, satisfying, healthy, fun, and
legal.”
Blowups can
be bought on eBay for $25 a pop. Boomershoot accepts most mementos for
destruction, as long as they meet rules and requirements, and customers cover
shipping charges. Details: Big Blowup
The Big Blowup caters to a wide variety customers – from heartbroken lovers
disposing of unwanted post-romance objects, to loved ones saying goodbye to
mementos of lost loves – and everyone (and everything) in between. Gift
certificates are available for all occasions; blowups will be detonated on May 1, 2005.
”The gift of a Big Blowup will lift the spirits of friends who’ve survived
recent divorces, breakups or even makeups,” says Ry Jones, Boomershoot
Assistant. “A Big Blowup makes for a fun, unforgettable birthday gift.”
Concern has been raised that explosives sales are prohibited on eBay.
”We’re not selling explosives, we’re selling the documentation of an
explosion,” says Huffman. “A photo of an explosion, and the healing that
comes with it, has infinite value.”
Boomershoot was started in 1998 to give people a safe space in which to enjoy
the recreational pleasure of guns and explosives. Event Director Joe Huffman is
a government scientist, certified firearms instructor, and has an ATFE license
to manufacture high explosives. Boomershoot has maintained an A+ safety record
with participants adhering to strict standards of safe gun handling and
operation.
Diverse shooters and spectators from across the country are expected to attend
Boomershoot, including law enforcement officers, scientists, engineers, members
of the Boeing Pistol & Rifle Club, and Microsoft Gun Club. Spectators are
welcome at this year’s event; shooter positions are expected to sellout.
