Blairsville, Georgia (IP) - The leading manufacturer of lead fishing sinkers has announced that his company will remove all of the lead from all of the lead sinkers his company makes. This will make the sinkers much lighter and easier to ship and will also make them less toxic.
Bullet manufacturers are taking note of this move and may follow suit. Our investigative reporter in the field had his ear to the door, or so to speak, and has found out that meringue may be used as the new substance of choice. Meringue is much lighter and fluffier and is quite delicious also.
The practice of using meringue instead of lead would probably eliminate the need for police and soldiers to wear those hot and uncomfortable bullet proof vests and would help cut way down on crime and battle field casualties. This would even be more true if knife manufacturers would join in.
