Hi Jim and the deaf,
Ah yes, that good old bass boost, massive "sub" woofers stuffed into the
trunk, boot or whatever! You can hear them coming for miles, boom boom
boom, and when the pass by, BOOM BOOM BOOM, and as they drive away, ____
____ ____. As you pick up the shards of what once were your windows your
hearing slowly returns, well, sort of. Meanwhile, a herd of elephants
were alerted to what they interpret as a sub sonic warning from another
herd, they stampede in the opposite direction. When they regain their
senses, they wonder "That was one HELL of a rogue bull, glad he didn't
come THIS way!"
Those guys spend massive money on huge speakers, multiple power
amplifiers rivaling our RF amps, unequalizers and such while the kids go
hungry. Oh, did I mention the generator hitched on behind to power it all?
Well, I have come up with the solution, the poor man's boom car. All that
is needed is a bass drum and a crank mounted to the rear axle with a push
rod to the pedal. They don't need any electronics at all, that's because
all they can hear is that BOOM BOOM BOOM anyway, they have lng since gone
deaf to other frequencies. Yeah, they speak the language, they just can't
her you. Oh, the faster they go, the faster the booms, so they can seat
dance to the beat of their choice, traffic permitting. Since most can't
dance like a whirling dirvish it keeps the speed down, and combined with
the warning signal we can get out of the way long in advance.
Oh, I almost forgot! I have been in those disco lounges where all I can
hear is that booming along with a faint "chicka chicka" from schreechy
sounding tweeters, nothing in between. For those who would miss that BOOM
chicka BOOM chicka BOOM BOOM BOOM, they can attatch a tambourine to the
push rod.
The interesting bit is that racket is so loud, thay never notice the
shotgun blast over the BOOMs nor the pellets ripping past them over the
chickas. Unless one of the neighbors hits the driver square on, when he
gets home and notices the damage he's left wondering which neighborhood
he should consider off limits. That gives you another shot another day,
good target practice and great entertainment.
