freaking amazing. I mean. Only in America will you find people who spend a lot of time figuring out how to chunk punkins almost a mile.

If nothing else...THIS makes me proud to be American.

I saw that show too. One day I hope to build my own catapult and hurl vegetables.

and, oddly enough, I surfed past the old Rutger Hauer flick "Flesh & Blood" which has a seen where the bad guys chunk dead cow flesh over a castle wall to spread disease.

good flick, btw.
