I was lurking back in '98 and it was this post by Art that made me sign up right then and there........and the rest is history. And we all know what a pain in the ass history can be. Art too for that matter.......nothing worse than Art History.....I mean, ta' hell with Rembrandt!!!

Anyway, here is the post.

On the Mississippi River a group of barges filled with pigeons went aground and the entire tow was stuck fast blocking the river traffic. The Capt. was adept with a bullwhip and he'd crack his whip and get the birds to flying. That lightened the load and they easily backed off the sandbar. Of course, that was a pigeon-tow.
Barges filled withy Tic-Tac candy would be a tic-tac-tow.

Hammers would be a hammer-tow, but they'd need to be removed surgically!
