      Thought I'd share a picture of this beautiful water cooler on display in the museum at the Ohio Statehouse.It looks small in the photo but it is huge,holding 16 gallons.There are some great pieces on display at the Ohio Historical Society museum also,but I really like the detail on this one.I would faint if I found something like this one.

Very cool. I would have a heart attack if I dug that.
Obviously decorated by someone that had seen a lot of pigeons but never saw an eagle

That is a pretty crappy eagle, but I'd crap out a pigeon if I uncovered one, broken or not.
