I don't think so. She seemed fine after awhile. People say that there are just a lot of blood vessels on the back of the head, so it (the bleeding) looked a lot worse than it really is.
Worse fencing injury you've gotten? (Or is that the worse one?) A synonym is a word you use when you can't spell the word you first thought of.

Do you wear a bandanna when fencing? Why sabre? Because you don't take heads with the point.

Do you use bayonet or regular prong cords? "I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend, to the death, your right to say it."

(Everybody has one somewhere!) Borrow a peasant-looking skirt if you don't have one - one that swirls nicely when slicing at people with the sabre you're going to borrow from the fencing team (because we all know you don't fence sabre, right?). Wrap a long gauzy scarf around your waist at a jaunting angle and tie it. Tuck said sabre into the scarf. Black boots, sexy and heeled, with black stocking. Preferably stocking - NOT pantyhose. A simple bandana on your head should do the trick.
Eye patch is optional. An eye patch just shows you didn't parry well enough.
Are you thinking of dressing as a pirate for Halloween as well?

Hmm... not sure yet.
What was your favorite halloween costume? "When your opponent fears you, then's the moment when you give the fear its own rein, give it the time to work on him. Let it become terror. The terrified man fights himself. Eventually he attacks in desperation. That is the most dangerous moment, but the terrified man can be trusted usually to make a fatal mistake. You are being trained here to detect these mistakes and use them."

Have you had a fencing lesson in the last 48 hours? "When your opponent fears you, then's the moment when you give the fear its own rein, give it the time to work on him. Let it become terror.

Nope, but I taught a novice class. I'm one of the captains in my club, and, at this point, the main teacher. (We're completely student-run.)
Do you like teaching?

I love it! I've really come into my "coaching self" in the last several months.

Sadly, I don't anymore. That'll change, but not anytime soon.
Which thread do you think will be home to G?F?'s 10,000th post? (Hmmm, I wonder) Fencing T-shirts available at Off-The-Piste Wear **New designs** including f.net themed designs for easy recognition of fellow f.netters at tournaments!

No, can't say I'm too suprised
Do you post on any boards aside from F.net? "I may disagree with what you have to say, but I shall defend, to the death, your right to say it."
