<font face='Book Antiqua'></font id='Book Antiqua'>[size=4][/size= I was thinking that i might do something different next year. I get tired of working on this old house all the time. So I have decided that in the spring I am going to build a trebouchet. I love seige warfare and medieval history anyway and I thought this may be a cool thing to do with the boys. If worse comes to worse I can laye seige to Palmer's town hall if they threaten to raise my water bill again. Any thoughts ?

By this time tomorrow I shall have gained either a pearage or Westminster Abbey........Nelson

This might be a little big for your backyard, but if you need some ballast...300lbs or so just give a holler.

I shall forge the mighty sword cornholer, with which I shall cornhole the oppressor.

Dear Abby, I joined the Navy to see the world. I've seen it. Now,
how do I get out?

Hawg, maybe we could call it modern art. Then they might let us set it up in front of town hall...

I shall forge the mighty sword cornholer, with which I shall cornhole the oppressor.

Hawg,

My medieval history is a bit ropey, but didn't they use these things to fling rotten diseased cow carcasses over the city walls they were laying siege to hoping to spread diseases?

Not wanting to give you any ideas as to what to do to town hall or any thing...


"A .44 magnum beats 4 Aces everytime..."

yes they did.... ]:)

Overkill??? I'd kill a fly with a howitzer if I had one.

Also, when the cows ran a bit short they'd fling human corpses, sometimes pierced with broken bits of sword and metal (for added dramatic effect as well as hopes of the off-chance of skewering someone on the way down).

It was a bit of a "crap shoot," but seeing your dead cousin flying through the air back at you would probably have some crazy devastating psychological effects... poor bastards...

Would've been funny as hell to watch though.

I take it the Geneva Convention wasn't about in those days <img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>...

nothing like a flying bovine sailing over your city walls.....

As much as we laugh when read stuff like that in our history books, you realy have to admit that a flaming cow would be a spectacular sight at 200 ft agl doing 100kts.

I heard some dude built a massive Roman catapult in his backyard, and launched him and his friends into the like nearby until the city officials came and made him stop
