So... Rocket engines?

I have a small surplus of rocket engines, and have no idea what to do with them.
Post your suggestions here, the best ones will be used and recorded on video. My Youtube screen name is TotallyLunar if you want to see the results. I've already done a skateboard (Again, but it went FAR this time), but I haven't gotten to uploading the video yet.
Also, please make your suggestions reasonable.

Tie two of them together front-to-front, put them on a tube, and see which one wins.
Or you could just tie them together end-to-end. That's pretty cool.

Do you mean stuffed animals, like a teddy bear?

Hell no. The kittens aren't even mine, I'm just taking care of them for an organization until they get adopted.

Why not try to make some sort of RC rocket vehicle? See if you can strap a rocket to an RC plane!

Don't have any kind of remote controlled device around my house. Even if I did, these engines have ejection charges, so they're going to burn the hell out of whatever they're attached to.

Isn't the ejection charge the last section of the rocket motor? Can't you just cut it off?

Get a xbox 360 shell, put some random hardware pieces in it, and record a video saying you got rrod or maybe that you just want to destroy a 360. Strap the shell to rockets, launch, enjoy. Host the video on YouTube and earn millions of internet dollars. If you're not cheap like me you could use a real 360.

My cousin has the "display" 360 from Circuit City. It only has enough to make it look real, If you can get your hands on one of those that'd be perfect.

I just got an idea, why not turn a coca cola bottle into a rocket? After all. it is my favorite soft-drink.
