Out here on the prairie I have served as Loader to a colleague who has a Spud Gun, but we never aspired to Pumpkin Cannonry. 50-foot barrel? 4500-foot range? Astounding! I hope you were firing this thing out to sea -- we just chunked our taters into a neighboring cornfield.WSJMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09712152737422347034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10326675.post-44578214960442638232009-10-29T12:06:25.881-04:002009-10-29T12:06:25.881-04:00Mark,

I suspect we can find scriptural authority for the blessing of weapons, and certainly tradition upholds cannon blessings.
