    Hmm... I dunno. Probably a pencil lead while I was writing! (Mechanical. It happens a lot.)

    Do you know how to rewire a blade?

    I've seen it done, and I've watched the process a good number of times, though I've never given it a try myself. I will definetly give it a go in spring once class resumes again.

    Why all this talk about wiring blades? I take its someone asked you to do it for them, or you're going to ask someone to do it for you.

    No, I take care of my own equipment. I was helping some people on the team. I'm the armour (and "assistant" coach) for my old HS team, and I'm trying to train them a little so when I go off to Wheaton, they won't die.

    Curious thing though, he couldn't get his pistol grip to tighten enough! No matter what he did, it was always loose. Any idea why that might be?

    Not a clue. I use an italian grip. Think about posting a query in the armory section?

    Well, no because I immediately thought it might be because he forgot his lock washer!

    When do you think I will get one Rep point to push me over the 999 edge into the land of one-thousands?

    Yeah. Bumped up to 1008 now. I thought for sure 1000 would get you another dot. Oh well.

    Do you think its healthy when I only ever manage to get two meals a day, with one being two MacDonalds MacChicken Sandwich (breakfast/lunch- BRUNCH!) and the other being a big bowl of lettuce with Italian dressing?

    Depends on your metabolism, how much physical activity you get a day, and a bunch of other variables I'm too lazy to consider right now. Though I'd say that's fine.

    What do you think of the Tookie Williams case?

    Well, I'm not to aware of the facts about his trial & conviction, however in general I am for capital punishment for certain crimes (rape+murder). I'm not sure I would support capital punishment for a single conviction of manslaughter, but maybe on multiple manslaughter, depending again on other circumstances.

    Further thoughts?

    None, don't really know what you're talking about.

    Yeah, he did have some problems with the washers, but I thought he got some... I won't post a thread because I don't know all the details. I'm a French grip person, much simpler.

    Favourite way to work on point control?

    Yes, it is possible to put a movie up here. Fencegrl just did it recently.

    Why can't I bring myself to write a college essay?

    It already has. Finals was last week, and I can either register for winter classes, or just take it off and wait for spring. I'm thinking of getting more hours at work instead of in the classroom during winter.

    What kind of hat do/would you wear?

    Sure, Nusy, I'm always happy when good things happen to you, even when I don't know what you're talking about.

    What are you looking forward to?
