Once while in college he lit an M80 in a friend's car to throw out the window. It missed and fell back into his lap. He flipped it onto the floor, opened the car door and jumped out. The "bomb" went off and the car came to a stop. The car was full of smoke and the other guys in the car crawled out and had smoke coming out of their noses like "Ferdinand the Bull." There was a hole in the floorboard about 6 inches around.
Once he took his mother's Cadillac with a bunch of guys down to Ensenada, Mexico. They drove down on the beach and got out and did whatever it is young men do. When they got ready to leave the tide had come in and the car was in water up to the doors. They worked and worked trying to get out of the wet sand but could not. Some locals tried to help them but couldn't. They wound up spending the night and getting the car towed out of the sand the next day.
Bishop of the Norco First Ward,
On one of his birthdays the priests in our ward asked if they could come over after midnight and be the first to wish him happy birthday. He didn't know they were coming and fell asleep in his recliner, reading. The boys came in and toilet papered him in his chair, without him waking up. He was completely covered, head to toe, except his nose. They tickled his nose and he came up swatting at flies or whatever was on his nose. The boys thought it was hilarious, and told the story for years.

At the ophthalmologist I went to make a follow-up appointment with the girls at the desk. I let them know that I was just a little concerned about the doctor and explained that this was the first time I had been asked to take my clothes off for an eye examine. I was totally unaware that Dave had followed me out and standing right behind me. He put his arm around me and explained to the girls that we had been roommates in college and I was a joker and had said that just to embarrass him.

After Dave Callister had examined this person's eyes, he had stumbled out into the waiting room and kept bumping into the furniture. The room full of elderly women were terrified when he blasted out - "Oh doc, it is so much better since you fixed it!!!!" Dave really had a hard time convincing these patients that there was nothing wrong with his eyes and that he was just putting on an act.
