Really! I went to pick up one of those suckers and it was as hard as a rock and covered with sharp spikes. You could barely hold one without cutting your fingers. I'd never seen anything like it and it kind of freaked me out.

In my judgment...a North Carolina pine cone probably could kill a squirrel!
That's right, they're hardy! And this is what we do to them cones...

YouTube - M1 Garands go "ping!"

Only way to kill 'em.

I haven't decided if I should call it from the dugout or the outfield. Apparently, both have really great views!

Screw green, it ain't easy being blue!

I won't be coming here that much anymore. I might check in now and again.
