Subject: RE: BS: Famous last words
While not quite last words, they seem to very appropriate to this thread.

    This afternoon, while napping on the couch my 5 year old niece approached with 2 pieces of lathing strips (18"x1"x1/4"). Now said niece is very keen about swords and sword fighting, and is rather zealous in her attempts to get uncle Chip to teach her more.
    She woke me when she placed one of her "swords" in my hands. Waving her other sword around, she looked at me, sans glasses, and a bit grumpy from having my afternoon nap disturbed, then she looked back at her sword, calmly looked back at me and removed the lathing strip from my hand. I heard her say as she headed for the kitchen for a snack...
    "Probably not a very good idea."
