When I first read that today was National Fruit Cake Toss Day, I thought it was a nice idea to ensure the freshness of your holiday confection. These people in Manitou, Colorado really take it to the next level.

If any of those cakes are homemade, they could easily be as lethal as any military grade ballistic device I've ever heard of. Please dispose of your fruitcakes in a much safer method than the fine folks of Manitou. I do not want to pelted with old, petrified dessert as I take my morning walk.
