The Cannon

The Cannon -- the ride of a lifetime!

The marketing for “The Cannon, The Ride of a Lifetime” was a tad misleading, if accurate:

Hey kids, do you want to fly? Then come down to Uncle Savage’s Funzateria for Orphans and Undomesticated Children. We have the greatest ride ever invented by the cybertronic minds of NaziWorks 3000! (The Caring Company)! It’s free! And it makes you fly!

Just run into the gaping maw of the NaziWorks Happy Harlequin™ and you’ll be whisked upwards at the speed of sound.

Don’t worry about paying, because you’ll be airborn before we can even ask for your money.

It’s the most fun you’ll ever have. IN YOUR ENTIRE LIFE!

    Clowns have got to be pretty much the most terrifying thing ever.

    Especially when they can launch you at the speed of sound.

    I’ve been catching up…and spent the last 5 minutes snickering…this particular post produced a horrified guffaw! 🙂

    It’s pretty easy to miss the tiny little figure, enjoying his flight, up in the top left of the image … wheeee!
