Water Cannon

Not one of mine.

If it was one of mine it would have less than 5 minutes of squirty time.

Did you know you lived in Dumbo (http://www.smh.com.au/news/news/net-users-seek-holidays-at-brian-bay/2007/08/20/1187462151637.html)?

Hmm, I'd say that was a good investment, though I do agree about the possibility of innocent people getting hurt if used improperly...

It does sound rather silly if you only hear a little bit about it...
"Hey, did you hear that the New South Wales government has a new armoured vehicle that has a water cannon on it?"
"Hmm, no I hadn't, bet you could use it for long distance water fights, eh?"

Great, now you've got me thinking about riot cannons, and how to make them even sillier.

I personally like the concept of shooting the equiviliant of a 3 litre "ball" at ridiculously high speeds. Would be less wasteful than a continous stream, and the 12k litre tank would last more than 5 minutes...

The only problem is that with the current water restrictions, they can only use it every second Thursday.
