I hope that Gallagher guy wont be there, he hates losing at melon smashing.

oh yes i can see your version of the melon applique armor is effective at thwarting rocket attacks and IEDs......but i hear that adding salt improves the tensile strength of the armor

i asked my ex to bring one back from japan for me.. and she told me that they were $60-$75 each... and that they weren't any better than the seedless roundies we have here. :grumble:

I just wanted it so i can take a photo of me holding one. :puppydog: :puppydog:

I should make a business growing these melons. I think all we need is a cube form for them to grow in.

I briefly thought about that.. i couldn't think of a way to make them economical enough.. it's hard to beat the 9/lbs you can get melons for at Super A or even $5.99/ea at Costco..
