Team 2: Balls-R-Us
I was practicing my aim while at work. Just launched a triple-threat attack so let's hope that all three hit a target. :)
I'm about 40 minutes away from launching a rather massive one (1200+ pages). May need to use a catapult :D
Should we formalize our throwing techniques? Toss
Lob
Wind-up-and-throw
Catapult
Trebuchet
What am I missing?
I was just kidding. I have no idea how the shots are tabulated.
But, the thought of recruiting an army of pigeons makes me smile.

Yes it would , especially if they was homing pigeons , they could make the drop and come home for the next one
LOL... I saw "army of pigeons" and immediately thought of the movie Valiant. Now I have to watch it... it's a good thing tomorrow is Sunday. I know what I'm going to be doing tomorrow other than finishing my last book for this week.
Looks like need to come up with a away that will help us hit our mark. No matter how bad our throw is .
Tossing some snowballs....I enlisted the help of the cute hockey player, Riggs, and his team. Let's hope these snowballs make an impact. :)Also, may have misjudged my reading number a little bit because turf wars isn't over quite yet. On the other hand, I probably won't get much reading done between 12-23 and 12-31 so I may not have misjudged it that badly...
I'll stop lobbing giant snowballs eventually (say, in about 11 days or so...), but in the meantime, I'm still needing that catapult, lol.
Quietly mutters to myself that I think this may be a bad idea as I borrow the catapult for a 500ish page book. Let's just hope that I don't get injured with this thing. Also, stares at the calendar and thinks to myself 11 days isn't so far away as some bigger-ish books silently look at me from the other side of the room.

Oh wait, make that 2/8. *sigh*"
LOL, I am sorry the Snowball wheel doesn't like you. Maybe it will like you better another day.

It's pure luck. The wheel alternates hit & miss so every other space on it is a miss.
