A cajun in a bar bet a yankee 5 dollars that there were 4 doors in that saloonsurferdaddy wrote:At my local range, there is a metal contraption which, I believe, is bolted to the deck. It has a roundish metal body and a mouth angling upward. I can only assume it would be to point a muzzle into in order to clear a malfunction? If this is the device's intended use, would it not be far less dangerous to aim down range and clear a weapon? It's probably a coffee maker or something and I'm a dork, but can anyone clue me in?
Thanks,

The Yankee thought *There's a front door and a behind door, that's only two* so he took the bet
The cajun explained
There's a front door and a behind door, that's two, hey bartender, what's your name?
"Isador"
Ok that's three
and that metal contraption over there, with the roundish metal body and a mouth angling upward, it's a cuspidor; that's four doors

So, the yankee decided to place the same bet with the next guy who walked in to get his money back
Texan walks in, yankee bets 5 dollars that there were 4 doors in that saloon

Actually, I have no idea what it is you are asking about, could be an umbrella stand, but I'd hesitate to drink from it just yet.

And, I wouldn't shoot into it.
