Gortimer Gibbon's Life on Normal Street2014

Mel Fuller:
Well, if we want this water balloon fight to be truly historic, we're going to need a force multiplier.

Ranger Bowen:
Something that makes the other kids wet themselves - with their own balloons.

Gortimer Gibbon:
Well, then we're going to need bigger splashes, longer range - a catapult. You know, the one with the swinging thing at the bottom.

Mel Fuller:
That's a trebuchet, which would be perfect. We could lob balloons all the way across the field.

Ranger Bowen:
Medieval! I like it - but wouldn't we run out of ammo too fast?

Mel Fuller:
One problem at a time. First we need to figure out if we can actually build it. My place after school - we'll talk blueprints.
