The Citrus Cannonball

I marched across the wooden breakfast counter, determined to test the supreme tensile acoustics of an unopened tin of golden syrup! Why simply tap a tin when one can deploy aerodynamic breakfast ballast? Spotting a fat, wrinkled walnut resting inside a shallow woven basket, I hauled it to the edge like an ancient cannonball. With an operatic battle cry, I hurled the nut straight at the tin lid! Thwack! The walnut rebounded with breathtaking fury, striking the rim of an empty ceramic mug and catapulting sideways straight into my vest! The kinetic jolt knocked me flat on my back into a shallow puddle of spilled breakfast tea. A thunderous percussion success! #TheMuppets #Gonzo(TheMuppets)
