* He even appears on JunkYard Wars! [3]


I came across Trebuchet.com, [4] a site where you too, can learn how to build
a trebuchet, a type of catapult. The guy running the site is another one of
these engineer types with way too much time on his hands. Way too much. And
as I was going through his site, I couldn't help but think of an episode [5]
of Northern Exposure, where Chris, the artist philosopher disk jockey of the
radio station, builds a catapult to fling a cow.

Man, I miss that show.
