Linstock is the new word of the day.
OK this one is for the men you should know or come close to the meaning of this. For you ladies this may be a little tougher for you. So guys what to give it a shot (that is a hint)? Come on just one try and ladies I’m not leaving you out either. If you know shout it out… The meaning of (lin’stak’) a long stick formerly used to hold a lighted match for firing a cannon.
Good morning, James. I tend to have a short fuse on my cannons. I can see where a linstock will keep my fingers from being burned (again)...
Hi James,
I am without a cannon to light at the moment, but if I did have one to light.
I deffinetly would use a Linstock, for safety purposes of course.
Have a good day in Rogers, Arkansas.
Best, Clint McKie
When we were kids, we used "punks" for lighting fireworks. They were long sticks with a hot end on them. Pretty much the same thing.
Great word James. I am just trying to figure out when I will be able to use this one appropriately!
Well James, my linstock is somewhere in the back of the garage since they repossessed my cannon! Enjoy your day!
James- chalk up one more word I missed! But that's ok... I'm learning every day.
James ...I use one of use these for putting all the birdies I get!!! Have a great day in AR!
Good one James. I needed a refresher on the meaning. I do recall this being mentioned in the history books of my youth.
