    Just the other day, I spotted two different snowball presses in a store. One of them sorta looked like the forms that were used to make lead musket balls (nutcracker style construction), and the other looked more like an extension grabber...only without the ability to just snap the form shut from 3' away.

    And so begins the new Cold War. Do you really think it's possible to out-snow-weapon the Russkies?

    @Con Seannery: And if you can see Russia from your front porch, you can throw snowballs at them as well.

    The best snowballs (most lethal) are made by packing the wet snow in a small ball and left overnight to freeze then covered in a deceptively softer snow layer the nest day. If youre going to play, play to win.

    @Curves: Wouldn't it be more lethal if the snowball was filled with rusty razor blades and rocks?

    @CubFan81: That game isn't as fun as "Find the teeth at the bottom of the pool, and hope they can be reattached". BTW, I lost that game(It does give me a very authentic Halloween costume as "guy who got beat up"):

    @Curves:
    Note to self: If Curves is spotted holding a snowball, chuck a brick at her. Make sure it fell off of a tall building, so as to be more sporting about it all.

    Look at them, Kodos, making bigger guns with more snow.

    @SmartyPantsDance.: Yeah, I mean, we've never NOT had snow in October in NJ. Or had temps below freezing on Halloween. But I'm sure colder and earlier winters are part of global warming.
