That reminds me of the little old lady who got her crocheting hook confiscated because she might have make an Afghan.

Whew! Fruitcakes aren't allowed on the planes. That means my kooky mother-in-law won't be visiting anytime soon!

Somebody has to say it: "All your fruitcake are belong to us."

You know, they have a point. Have you ever tried to pick up one of those suckers?

The mother of all food fights would be throwing fruit cake at each other. The slices would land like gooey brick bats, and the casuality list would be long. :)

Shh...don't tell anybody, but I *like* fruitcake!

I am xJones, and I am a fruitcake eater also.....:)

I know that the larger fruitcakes can be also used as Daisycutters when dropped by the USAF, but they are a Southern family tradition. :D

It shouldn't take much to convert a Pumpkin Catapult to launch Fruit Cake into the next county...

Let us be devoutly grateful that Saddam Hussein never learned about Pumpkin Catapults and grandma's fruitcake. :)
