early afternoon

Bat Out Of Hell

Leigh-Ann and I were shopping in the deli section of Smith’s when suddenly visions of Helly & Alan’s new trebuchet wedding gift (what? not every wedding weapon gift has to be a set of knives) came to mind.  First, I noticed the meatloaf, but then Leigh-Ann suggested that the meatballs would give them more ammo bang for their buck.

Exhibit A Exhibit B

And what reminded me to actually post this entry?  In today’s Review-Journal, there was an update on the latest overreaction by Las Vegas news stations, “You won’t BELIEVE what the mysterious object was that fell through a medical center’s skylight.”  Well yeah, you would believe it, because it was asphalt, but whatever.  Anyway, in today’s paper were readers’ suggestions about what it could have been.  “George Gayner suggested a huge catapult was used to launch the rock from about 200 feet away from the target. ‘People are building these things and testing them, matter a[sic] fact I have a model one on my desk.’”  Okay, what’s the deal with catapults these days?

Speaking of Meatloaf, watch Meat and Katharine McPhee’s breasts on the American Idol finale.
