On a related note, there's going to be "Pumpkin Fling" in a couple weeks on a farm near where I work -- the signs that have been up for a while

If it's anything like the pumpkin flings I've heard about, that would be a competition to see whose homemade launcher can fling a pumpkin the farthest. You might like going to see it...
