I'd like to donate the civil war cannons from the city park to the army
So, being that the army is so hard up for artillary and all, http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/usworld/news-article.aspx?storyid=17942 , I as a good outstanding patriotic American Citizen would like to say that we in my area are ready to donate the half dozen or so civil war cannons from the city park as well as the stacks of cannon balls. Some minor sprucing up of the cannons will be required since they appear to be packed with lead, and the cannon balls are all welded together, but in short, I think this local donation to the military effort in Iraq should prove to be quite helpful in winning the war on .... ??? ... ??? .... ??? on whatever it is we are trying to win :silly:

3. You may have a point there
I've heard numerous reports from Iraq that the armor for our troops is inadequate and hard to come by at best. WE could raid all of those midevil museums, castles and such and send the suits of armor along with the cannons and cannon balls our local parks division is willing to donate to the cause of winning the ??? .... ???? .... ?? ? ??? well, whatever it is we are trying to win :silly: and that would make us true stand up American Patriots feel as if we were contributing to the war effort
