fantastic post as always DRB!
The fly on the urinal is a very old idea, though originally it was a bee, as a pun on apis - latin for bee.
The bomb is a T-12 Demolition bomb, as developement of the british "Grand Slam" bomb, on display at the US army ordinance museum, Aberdeen proving ground, Aberdeen, Maryland
The image of the boy in front of the large bomb is at the US Army Ordnance Museum at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, Maryland. You can see it here:

If you scroll about 2/3 to the right, there is a thumbnail that will enlarge.
that image of those two snakes were intriguing.
What were they doing?
Getting ready to fight of to kiss
who's milking the mouses?
Cats! but of course.
Those weren't two snakes at all!
The reptile on the right is a turtle... notice the lack of fangs among other differences.
