ML.....at this moment in time I do not think a person could say "The Sun Came up Today" with out being challenged.   When I was a kid, we had hedge apple fights, Osage Oranges if you live further south.  I am starting to have a bit of   Deja vu



Those oranges must've hurt! I thought getting pelted with crab apples was bad! ( a long story).


Lots of wedge issues here...

A two pound Hedge Apple flung by a decent arm would take a 6 year old right off his feet, and keep him there long enough for the flinger to reload and get another shot off.

This was also a forerunner of PaintBall, as the round green projectile would leave a huge gob of the white sticky gunkus on the victim,  that resides inside of all Hedge Apples.

Now we return to your regular programming.

Ya know OS, with a little polish and practice, we could take this comedy show on the road!  Grin Grin  Maybe we could convince folks like db to do guest appearances with us!? Maybe ST and mossback could join us for demonstrations of marksmanship with apples and whatever... Wink
