I was thinking about the old beverage can pull tops that came completely off. Some people even collected them, though I don't know why. Well, you could hook them together and make a chain of some sort and use them as cheap decorations. That was a perfect way to show how classy they were. Kind of like displaying old whiskey bottles as pieces of art.

Anyway, getting back on track, then I recalled the really ancient when cans didn't have a pull tap and a person needed a church key to get in. The trick was to make a big hole on one side of the cans top and a smaller hole on the other side. For beer enthusiast a hole on the bottom was sometimes made.
