    You need a "Have trebuchet, will travel" T-shirt.
    Yeah, this could slingshot us into a conversation on unconventional travel methods.

    All you need in life, Nighthawk, is a pile of rotting watermelons and a catapolt.

    I'm sure Mrs. Hawk would roll her eyes... then laugh.

    No- she'd look at me with a slight glint of panic in her eyes and say "Don't you dare!!" ...because I actually have friends with a trebuchet and neighbors who already think I'm nuts. It would be fun to prove them right!!

    Years ago my son built a functioning scale model mangonel (onager) for a school project. The kit came with a t-shirt that pictured the catapult and these words: "Have You Hurled Today?"
