Man, that's awesome. Heck, I wish I had a golf ball cannon.

My father and I plan to build one this summer, as a toy problem prior to building a Rebar Launcher of Death the next summer. Between my working at a golf course and his HVAC experience, we should get some cool results. If you have anything you want to see destroyed, e-mail me at darthbob88@gmail.com. Bear in mind that we haven't got any high-speed camera available, so all we could show is a fast-moving blur and a something getting destroyed. :evil: Maybe next year.

It's so bad it wraps back around to awesome then back to bad again, then back to halfway between awesome and bad. Like if ed wood directed a godzilla movie - Duckie

That is made of fresh squeezed awesome.

Visually, the jello mould was the best, but I liked the cantaloupe because it seemed to cry out as it was torn asunder. :lol:

I love the way the mayo just started to form holes where you can see the two sockets and mouth all over the place.
I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
