I'm bumming around the internet learning how to make precision guided artillery, BC style. The sling is an ancient and deadly armor piercing weapon. The David V. Goliath thing is less pea-shooter vs. tank than it is sniper rifle vs. chainsaw. Goliath was fucked the moment he stepped out on to the field. There isn't much you can do about a rock being flipped at your head at a hundred miles an hour.
Between bussing tables, screwing with an anglegrinder, climbing mountains, and playing with my swords I'm developing some rather satisfying arm muscles, and my grip is getting teh firmness.
Some day I want to have blacksmith hands. If you've ever shaken a blacksmith's hand you know what I'm talking about. It's like shaking a warm stone wrapped in fine leather. And unlike assine old men and over inflated young men who feel the need to try to crush your hand when they shake it, blacksmiths simply let the massive solidity of their hand speak for them. The effect is rather more impressive.
