I watched the news video that showed the elderly woman being wheeled out on a stretcher - she was a normal size - not obese. Poor thing - it must have been awful to lay there for three days - thank goodness for the conscientious driver!!!

I have no social commentary. Uh, I just see a Monopoly house.

Kind of a cousin of the Lyle gun! We have one at the Ranger Station in the park where I work. It looks just like a miniature cannon. They were used by the US Life-Saving Service (later to become the Coast Guard) to shoot lines to swimmers and vessels in distress.
I tell children it is a gun to help people instead of hurt people.
