A man's Home is His Castle


My original design plan for my shed was inspired in part from talking with fellow blogger Bobby G. Sometimes it's good to think defensively. I was told that the concertina wire on the ground might be illegal. I guess I could put a series of ground pikes there, carved out of wooden sticks. Then if anyone fell on them, I could just pull the sticks out and toss them in my pile of dead brush. I wouldn't even have to destroy the evidence. It would be hidden right there in plain sight.

As for the cannon; well, the Supreme Court did recently rule that we are allowed to keep guns in our homes!

Thanks for the inspiration, Bob.

  1. ROFLMAO...!
    Yer killin' me, Phil!

    Tell 'ya one thing, since the CANNON you'd probably be able to snag would be a MUZZLE-LOADER, the city should be OK with that.
    Not so much w/ the CONCERTINA WIRE (council would have to have a month of meetings to REZONE something commercial).
    And having a MOAT dug would impact on environmental issues (mosquitos and people pissing in it).
    GROUND PIKES are fine...very natural, very "green".
    But having a BURMESE TIGER TRAP (with tiger) is a NO-NO. Jim Anderson doesn't want to give any up, and you have to jump through a PLETHORA of hoops to even be ALLOWED to purchase one...then there's the FOOD COSTS (hopefully, the drug dealers would "help" in THAT regard).

    But I DO like the way you think!

    We're not an army of ONE any longer.
    (now we are TWO).
    So WHERE is the "combat pay"?

    Happy Portcullising!

  2. Well, I could fill the moat with beer, which would then attract food for the tiger. And thanks for educating me. I had to look up that portcullis word.

  3. Castles have ALWAYS been a pet fascination of mine. The architecture is fantastic, and the lifestyle found within those walls is intriguing as all get out.

    I like the "beer" idea, but I'd go with MALT LIQUOR or some cheap-ass VS brandy.
    THAT is GUARANTEED to bring 'em runnin'!

    (show me a happy tiger, and I'll show you a tiger with a FULL BELLY)
