Canons beat guns

Post by cronus » Tue Oct 29, 2013 6:51 am

A gun lasts until the precision engineered bullets run out. A canon will last longer in any disruptive civilization collapse event. The future starts again with canons. :coffee:

I am amused by the play on words.

You have given me a few seconds reprieve from the bleak futility of existence.

I went into the theology section of the local library the other day. Canons to the left of me, canons to the right of me.....

Into the bookshelves of death went the 600, led by Lord Huxley. Those hardbacks are mighty dangerous when they fall from the top shelf y'know.

That's what they said about General Custard.

But who went down in history? It's him, not Sittingbourne.

General Custard? He must have met his end at the little-known battle of The Big Flan. :food:
