Weirdly, I just finished watching a Barry Levinson movie called Liberty Heights (about ten minutes ago) where a bunch of Jewish bookies are talking about confusing cricket with croquet and how desegregating cricket in Baltimore is completely meaningless because black people don't play cricket. The fat guy also confuses them both with croquettes.
I'm still confused, I don't think crickets have balls and if they did they would be too small to see let allone kill a pigeon. Maybe a giant cricket from one of those old horror movies could have balls big enough to kill a pigeon but thats not real.
If I had not watched this video, I would not know of the difference between Cricket and Croquet. I can now understand how Cricket can be lethal to flying animals.
A friend of mine once threw an M&M at me point blank and I caught it between my thumb and forefinger, and without hesitation ate it in the same motion but no one believes me.
This guy's story is verifiable with videotape however.
About as much accuracy as a Patriot missile is a pretty snide comment considering the amount of friendly fire reports it generated. This happened about the time one killed 28 American soldiers in the Gulf war.
How did a patriot missile kill 28 soldiers? I thought they were surface-to-air anti-missile missiles, not go-crazy-and-kill-friendly-ground-troop missiles.
