A plastic bottle? To bludgeon some creature to death?

That'd be like going around mailbox-bashing with a whiffle bat!

Have you ever gone mailbox bashing, Laz? Hopefully not.

I was just explaining to my mom how you can't just add -5/2X to 7/2 and get one.

And she was my Algebra teacher.

Ouch. Luckily, my Dad almost became a math teacher, so he's still able to help us with Algebra, Calculus, Physics, etc. even at 59.

Mailbox-bashing? No - but it's been done to our mailbox several times.

Our mailbox too. Or else a car swerves out and hits it.

I want to take physics.

What's wrong with that?

I haven't taken it yet.

I was just reading an article on modern slavery. Quite disturbing.

Yeah. Seems to be mostly in Arab countiries nowadays, though.

According to the article there's actually quite a bit going in countries such as India, as well as Brazil and some African countries. Apparently some of it's bad in Afghanistan as well.

Here's the intros to two of the articles-you need a subscription to view the full ones online.

The plastic on the end is quite hard, works well enough, though "bludgeoning" might not quite be an option you'll cause plenty of pain. And your analogy is off, it implies forethought. If she knew before hand it would probably be a crowbar or a taser (water + electricity FTW) just something that would cause severe injury.

I guess you'd better call the analogy police, then.

Thank you for the information, Pendragon.

Water and tasers.... *remembers shooting a sticky shocker into a puddle while the cop stands in it* Splinter Cell can be so much fun.

I've always believed that you can kill anyone with anything. You just gotta know how to do it.

Posted: **Wed Feb 21, 2007 11:07 pm**

That sounds about right.

Homework.

too true, if you go for the throat or spine w/ the cap you could cripple/kill probably. Though just because you can kill with anything doesn't mean you should Sometimes hands are just more effective.
