My roommate and I get along fine. We're pretty good about sharing food and fridge space, and we even hang out a few times a week. Overall I'd say it's a friendly dynamic. But it occurred to me the other day that sometimes when my girlfriend comes over and we fire Civil War cannons in my bedroom, there's a chance he might be able to hear us… link |

What are we talking about here? 6 pound smooth bores or 10 inch Columbiads? If you were in Vickburg we could reference "Whistling Dick" but it's probably best not to go there. |

THIS is a suitable topic for a miniature forum??? |

No, this has nothing to do with miniature gaming. Unless the guy has a small cannon. |

It does give new meaning to "muzzle-loaded" versus "breach-loaded". |

Questions arise: Did he remember to remove the tompion from the hole before inserting his rammer? Was he successful in thoroughly applying his prick to the touch-hole? Was his use of an "elevating screw" effective in hitting the precise target? Has the term "interrupted screw" ever been applied to his breach? |

And a few more questions: Does he regularly check the size of his balls with a gauge? Has his favorite "piece" ever been nicknamed "the Swamp Angel", whose discharges have been described as noxious and lethal? |
