In case none of the above really helpful answers really helped answer the question, they are part of a lawn game, shaped like large darts. You toss it underhanded so it arcs through the air, hitting your little brother.More info?

Of course, in true international internet style, we are using the little-known Botswanan "J", which is pronounced /damonk/.------------------

*Flame roars out the back of the jart as the rocket motor starts up*
I don't think I can hold it!
*Struggles to point the jart towards the window*
Arhh!
*Jart rips free, arcs around and flys towards Screwball...*

Fortunately for the perpetrators of this horrible crime, the internet is not considered a state, or a country, or a city, or anything of that nature.Unfortunately for those of us with "J" names, see the above paragraph, and recall that we're the targets.Fortunately for those of us with "J" names, Damonk seems to be the only target thus far. Thank God (way to take one for the team, Damonk!!)WhooT!!

Being a normal "Non-J-Named" person, I would like to turn the following J-Named leftists for thier torture...Jay Leno
Dr. Laura(No J, I just don't like her)
Joey Lawrence
That's all I can think of now, but if you live in the Burbank, Beverly Hills or un-employed actor's office, ready your lawn jarts and prepare for a bloody, bloddy battle...------------------
