1. Hearts&Diamonds Bomb

Take a deck of ordinary playing cards, the old-fashioned paper kind, cut out the red spots and soak them overnight like beans. Alcohol is the best soaking solution, but tap water will suffice. Plug one end of a short length of pipe. Pack the soggy hears and diamonds into the pipe. One pre-plastic playing cards, the red spots were printed with a diazo dye, a chemical that has an unstable, high-energy bond with nitrogen. So you've got nitro, of sorts, now you'll be needing glycerin. Hand lotion will work nicely. Glug a little lotion inot the pipe. To activate the quasi-nitroglycerin, you'll require potassium permanganate. That you can find in the snake bite section of any good first-aid chest. Add a dash of the potassium permanganate and plug the other end of the pipe. Heat the pipe. A direct flame is best, but simply laying the pipe atop a hot radiator will turn the trick. Take cover! - Chapter 54 of Tom Robbins' 1980 novel, Still Life with Woodpecker
