In my wilder and crazier days, we used to fashion darts out of straws
and punch-cards and tape the bulb from a dis-assembled magicube to the
end.  When tossed against a hard surface they would go off almost
every time.

NOTE:  For anyone attempting to duplicate this feat, it is dangerous
(broken glass, etc.)  Also note that these are the mechanically
actuated "Magicubes" as opposed to the traditional electrical flashcubes.
