From the website. I'm thinking he's right.

“State fire Capt. Mike Mohler says the men told authorities they were working on the cannon nearby when it went off.”

Brian Regan cracks me up. His whole act is clean, but funny as heck. Thanks for sharing. Hadn't heard that one before.

As for the thread at hand, very sorry for the woman and her surviving husband.
