QuoteMan Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 (edited) My same cousin who got his gun liscense, has a sword in his car... At least that's what he says in case we anger him... Edited August 6, 2009 by QuoteMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatherineM Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 I'm thinking about a take-down recurve bow. He couldn't physically string it. He's pretty much a nerd who has never held a hammer. If push came to shove, I always prefer to do my own wet work with my hands anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a guy that carried around a string of big wooden beads, and he'd pull and the hidden garotte wire would come out. It looked very similar to a rosary......

CatherineM Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 I make my rosaries with waxed linen, 4 strands. Can't say I ever thought about using it in anger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Well it wouldn't have to be a rosary, of course. Since that might be blasphemous. ...but say you were to modify your crutch so that you could remove the handle... then you pull the handle, and it comes apart and there's a garotte wire in the middle.

Skinzo Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Pepper spray can easily be stashed in a crutch, and plenty of other places...and your husband doesn't need to know what self defense stuff is around does he? S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatherineM Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 She had seen my book on the Target website and was fishing for money. When I explained that I wasn't going to be sending her any money, she got mad. She wanted me to send a copy of my book to her. I think she is afraid of what I might have said about her. I was kinder to her than I was my own mother, so she has nothing to worry about, but she is exactly the kind who would sue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can truthfully say that I have never been called that before. My shoulders and neck muscles are so large that I can't even wear a normal bra without alterations. I was always the tallest in class. Even my feet and hands are huge. The only small thing on me are my nose and ears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
