    YOUR fencing button?

    We've all seen buttons with Che Guevarra, rock bands, famous people, and the like. What if you were given a chance to design your own fencing button and all the fencers in the world would get one, what would you put in it?

    these are actually my friend's sayings, and they made shirts out of the second, but they don't have accounts so i'll post these:

    Fencing: Violence is a way of life!

    Society of insanely violent hyperactive swordswomen. Be afraid. Be very afraid.*

    *actually, this is the front of the shirt. the backs says "Warning: see front"

    Let me guess... you rated out as "stabby" on the "what type of fencer are you" quiz.

    I want, "Plays with swords." Simple, elegent, and says it all.
    "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."

    Back at the Nationals in Fort Meyers, FL, in ... 1987? 1989? I can't remember ... there was a button-maker who made me a button on the spot with my slogan,
    The way to a man's heart is through his sternum.
    Now it's being used on t-shirts sold by a friend of mine on her web site, TheArmouress.com. Women seem to buy more of them than men, for some reason. <g>
