U-T San Diego (http://bit.ly/xllWgA ) reports the woman was found dead at about 12:15 a.m. Tuesday after the ball slammed into her home at the Twin Lakes Resort mobile home park in Potrero, a tiny community near the Mexican border.

Her name hasn't been released.

This is FR at its worst: finding mirth in a family’s tragedy.

Would that be considered a design flaw or a launch flaw?

Pesky laws of Newtonian physics. We should pass some laws against them.

Stupid men, of course. “Working on the cannon” in a trailer park shortly after midnight. Why is it wrong to laugh at those idiots’ stupidity just because someone was killed. The next thing you know, this “loose cannon” FR might be laughing at YOU! Your clerical collar is on too tight.

Hold that match to the little hole and I will look in this end to see if it is loaded. Just damn.

And it “went off.”

OK, how does that happen. Maybe smoking a joint and he leaned over, bringing the lit end in contact with the cannon’s fuse?

I read the story and it didn’t specify, but that has got to be a whole new breed of stupid if the guy actually lit a match and stuck it in the ignitor hole.

On a less tragic (fortunately) note, I believe a few months ago a cannon that was being tested in the L.A. area on a missile range by Mythbusters happened to rear back due to being insufficiently chained down, and put a cannonball through a house a couple of miles away, this one without hurting anybody although it could well have.

You know I would normally tend to agree with you, but living in a mobile home park playing with a cannon at midnight...

Well in this case tragic stupidity is more like it...
