Thanks for sharing that Ken, in my mind I visualized a more significant cannon. I'm sure PETA would be all over this if it were suggested today ::paranoid::

If your religion requires that you hate someone, you need a new religion.

When the people fear their government, that is tyranny. When government fears the people, that is freedom.

My father used to have a saying "Don't worry about the mule going blind, just keep loading the wagon" which basically meant "Just Keep Working".

Sounds like a sea story to me but on the other hand, it wouldn't shock me if it were true.
