There's nothing that says we can't make a trebuchet out of telephone
poles...  we just have to limit the power to where it doesn't throw ammo
more than 100 yards(yes there is a range limit now).  Also a treb may not
throw ammo that weighs more than 1 lb.  So I don't think the marshals would
allow you as ammo for the engine, no matter how much padding and duct tape
you have on :-)

Better to do what I did and take a flying leap off the wall... it works
wonders.

heh heh heh...
