these must be illegal are they............?

Good Evening.
It is I, again.

Kwainen, my mama and I appreciate your tears of sympathy.
Yes, those were painful times, but I tried to make them as painful to others, as they were to myself.
I am not sure what you meant when you said that they were "great", but I suppose each region of this planet has its own way of expressing sadness.

BigBore, if your dog has "issues" with his or her past, there is a supprt group on the net, which can be of assistance.
It's located at: www.pupswithproblems.com
(The server is kinda flaky, so if you can't get there now, keep trying... sometimes it takes as long as a week... but remember, it's a dogs site, and it's not like they have anything better to do.... unless they haven't been "fixed" yet, in which case, they can lick themselves silly as they wait.

Ken, thanks for the legal disclaimer.
I used to have that as part of my signature, but everyone bitched about it, so I removed it.
I'm not mad though; everyone else is.

Off to weavbe baskets out of cats,
I remain,

I get some pleasure from finding a relentlessly peaceful use for a combative looking knife.

I cannot see the point of this kind of carnival rubbish. Ok so getting hit with a couple of throwing knive is going to hurt, but stop me? No chance. If some punk threw these at me...

Not that I am calling anyone a punk here you understand. This is the kind of thing I see at car boot sales, usually with a crowd of baseball capped thugs admiring

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Before you go, cut out a 3x5 piece of red construction paper, and another of green paper. Print a 'P' in the upper left quarter of the red paper and a 'Q' in the upper left quarter of the green paper. In the upper right quarters, tape a picture of your favorite Pokemon character. Take some tape to attach your "badge" to your shirt. This is all you will need to go anywhere in the lab.

Take the subway(BART) to Pleasanton, and take a bus to the lab. Use the red badge to get in, since there aren't many 14 and 15 year olds with 'Q' clearance. Walk around the lab until you feel a tingly sensation. Determine which direction is most tingly. Find a good place to hide. Put your red badge away and put on your green badge. When someone walks toward the tingly direction, follow them to where the U235 is. Grab all that you can carry.
 
So thats how its done? Or get a BMW and $15000 and visit Russia. That will get you some weapons grade Plutonium.

My knives do not make me any more a primitive caveman than the rocks you carry inside your cranium.

All things considered, I wouldn't beat the kid up over a desire to carry a knife. I carried any number of kinds of knives from the time I had my first at about 5. The fact that he is at least considered about the legality of the situation implies a certain reasonableness that I did not have at that age. Besides, in any kind of confrontation, in court on the street or anywhere else, the person you are dealing with could be better than you or could be worse. Luck always plays a factor as well. I think it was Jim March in another topic that mentioned, if I can paraphrase, that well trained martial artists generally don't go around mugging people. So there is an arguable benefit to having a knife regardless of skill level - which also has not been established.

Finally, Vampire - you probably want U238, U235 by itself is quite stable. If you are going to break into Lawrence Livermore, you might as well grab the plutonium, which is highly poisonous as well as radioactive. Wrap it in a double layer of aluminum foil and you will be fine for awhile.

Intersting concept this concealed carry.
Now let's say someone (like myself) were the owner of a big knife. (like a Machax)

Were could one possibly hide such a huge a widely bent blade? Any suggestions.

I remember in Pre-K iI used to carry around a flame thrower. My, those were the days. I can still smell Susy's cat burning.

Are there any concealable flamethrowers? If not I have a great idea. You could make a small metalic case. Now add a hinge on top. inside the case would be a some fuel (we could call it lighter fluid) now under the cover put a wick and flint.

This inconspicuous weapon could be removed from it's concealed location, I think I'll call it a pocket which would be sewn into these things called pants which could be worn on the legs. A small opening called a zipper could be sewn into the butt (for some reason I think I've seen guy's wearing these before, I think they were leather) The zipper could be undone and a person could expell this stuff called gas from their bum bum. The portable flamethrower (zippo for short) could then be used to light the fart.

Is this a great idea or what.

You may think it's funny but wait till it's your turn.
 
Now, if you used a butane-fired concealable flamethrower, you could have an excuse (although a pretty poor one) to carry around a refill can of butane. Usign both items in conjunction, you could get quite the flame shooting out from the end of the butane can. Not that I would ever do something like that, or videotape myself doing it, or hand in that video tape for a project back in high school, or then get a 98 on that project. Hmm... come to think of it, I always kinda worried about the teacher who gave me that grad- I mean the teacher who, hypothetically gave me that grade on a hypothetical project which hypothetically consisted of me and a friend playing with hypothetical fire, and might, hypothetically, have been titled 'The Joy of Fire' (ala 'The Joy of Painting', but less PC). But it's all hypothetical, of course.

--JB

P.S., I'm not a pyromaniac! I just like fire! I bet half the people out there who forge blades probably agree with that.
