I don't know about that Donna he almost fixed stupid on both ends of the cannon.
This will probably be an honorable mention in the Darwin Awards this year.

Well what good is a cannon if you can't use it?.... apparently that was what he thought, if he thought at all.

Or if he was involved in the "attempt" to get rid of that old ship a few years back...

Or maybe the beached, dead whale?

Just the facts, Ma'am

It was not a cannon. It was a piece of pipe that the dope tried to use for launching fireworks. It was not pointed at the trailer, it was pointed up to the sky to launch fireworks. But like usual, Dope put too much firework in the tube and the thing exploded. Maybe he lit the wrong part, maybe the firework was defective, maybe it was homemade. Who knows? The Darwin principle works again. The woman won't be helping perpetuate his genetic line. Sad.

Evolution is a messy R&D method.

Crude, but effective.
