Burn them?

Kindof unremarkable suggestion.... but probably the best and safest yet fun thing to do.

-built furniture in the common room

-made them into a "christmas tree"

At the risk of sounding dweebish, recycle them?

Dweeb, Use them like a MAN, they make decent bullit backstops. Soak 'em in water. And then use them to compare penetration

Don't forget expansion and penetration, SoloSonett. They're great for that. I didn't know there were other uses for old phone books. Hey, we can keep poopshovel and 93celicaGT2 happy if we used incindiary ammo. This could be win-win.

Nah, too wimpy. Soak them in kerosene and use tracers.

Edit: Rats, Dr. Hess and amaff beat me to it.

Can't recycle them, and the janitor collected them up behind my back, dammit. Nice ideas though. I like the kerosene soaked books w/ tracers especially. There weren't enough for a fort or anything, maybe a small fone henge would have been possible, LOL

That's usually my first suggestion for situations like this one, but it sounded like we didn't have enough phonebooks. A jump would be my second choice. Forts are cool.

so the consensus is:

knock out janitor and steal them back, soak in kerosene, build a fone henge around a christmas tree and shoot them.

i love this place.

i like the target idea. They tend to make lots of confetti when shot with 30-06 rounds... not that i should know....

Rip them in half with your bare hands (start with just one and work you way up to combos).

I always use them as bases to drill on since I don't have like... a press or bench or whatever

I guess you only need to keep 1 or 2 around for that though

Donate them to the Power Team, so they can rip them in half for Jesus.
