    That one has been officially named the most cool scene ever in a movie. From what I have heard, they shot it that way (instead of a major fight) because Harrison Ford had diarrhea on the day they were shooting the scene... :whoa: :lol:

    Ahhh... 11 hours of sleep, I decided I need to catch up a bit, and I feel great! I think I only hve 2 more nights to work before I am off for hunting camp, which is really good because I need a vacation.

    I prefer a great axe myself, with my uber strength I just blast through defenses.

    What? Katanas, rapiers? Too much skill needed for those :confused:
    Two-handed axe, this way! :evil: That's what the viking berserkers used, those things could chop a man in half :evil:

    Katana's a fancypants weapon! It's sharp but doesn't cut trough bone!
    And an axe is still easier to learn (note: needs strenght)

    @Trellheim the overhand diagonal cut of a Katana should strike the body just on the collar-bone will cut through the body including the spine.

    You can cut someone in half with just about any edged weapon, if you hit them in the right place with the right force. Katanas are no better at it than anything else. Stick with a spear, or a Dane-axe. It will serve you far better.

    Spam has seized me and thrown me to the wind.

    Reason has weighed me and found me wanting.

    Sanity is a mere ghost in my soul.

    Nope, still no snow. It's just a matter of a week or two before the first snow, however. I, for one, am looking foward to winter.

    /cracks open a can of No Fear

    Actually, I'm looking foward to the long Xmas holidays. I'm counting the days left until the end of the semester. *shrugs*

    I want to disappear.

    Wow, I just saw an advertisment for Desperate Housewives - the game. Now there is something that I really don't want to go out fast and buy.

    Oh look, the country is safe; a student has awoken and drowned us in a veritable sea of eloquence and sensuality. Remember Daie whatever you do now, will come back to haunt you in public life :lol:
