Dr. Strangelove was the actual inspiration for all of that
silliness--granted, it's not a bomb per se, but I just *had*
to put him on there. ;)
(The following portion is why I've XP'd to .general)
As for the 4x4x3 (I think) cone, I got it in a load of parts
from a fellow in Germany. They're awful scratched up and
slightly discolored, but they *do* say "LEGO" on the stud at
the top. However, I had never seen them before, either--so
I can't quite figure out *what* set they came from. I can
at any rate say that this is the very first really good use
I've had for one. :)

ten-gallon hat?
