What makes you think God doesn't want you to pick your nose?  | |

| a. I don't think God cares whether or not you pick your nose. Kinda like one of those nonmoral decisions.
b. THe ALmighty gave you the power to kill and sin, but He does not want you to. Just because you have the power to do something, does not mean you should. Many times it is the man who restrains himself that succeeds.

| Much like my grandfather responded, I suspect just to give my mom grief, once when he heard her tell me not to wipe my nose on my sleeve when I was little.
I paraphrase more or less:
"Why were we given such a lovely expanse of forearm if no to wipe our noses on it?"
I'll ask another semi-gross one, and cat owners will relate all too well,
since the entire main floor of my house is either wood or tile now why does the cat have to head for one of the throw rugs when she's coughing up a hairball, aside from the fact that perhaps she thinks they're throw-up rugs? Not that I enjoy cleaning up hairballs anywhere, but it would be so much simpler to just wipe it up instead of wiping it up and scrubbing the carpet repeatedly.
Also, have you noticed we park on driveways, but drive on parkways?
Or the old one about how hot dogs come in packages of eight, but hot dog buns come in packages of ten?
Well, I'm done for now.

| I dont think God gives a toss, to be honest. And if you are picking your nose with your weapon I can only thank the Lord that you will be removing your inferior DNA, riddled with stupidity, out of the gene pool. No offence intended my friend, you can't help how you were made.

| Not knowing how your particular nose is constructed or what an acceptable success ratio may be for you personally, I would have to suggest the sabre. I feel that the foil, whether dry or electric, would be too blunt to make a very effective "picking tool" and the epee could be too large.
The sabre has a nice hook on the end of the tip that could be used as a gouge, a hook or a scraper depending on the nature of the choice morsels that you are extracting at the time. The hook is rounded which may take some of the risk out of an inherently dangerous operation.
Please make a video of your next effort and send it to Craig so he can set up a separate area of the board for these and other Jack@ss type activities.
Another possibility is to use the little plastic cocktail swords that you see at nicer diners and truckstops across the Midwest. You get a similar effect with the advantage of easy portability! | |

| Going a bit off topic again, does anyone besides me feel a compulsive need to save those little plastic cocktail swords--not confined to the mid-West BTW, we have them in Utah too--whenever your drink or meal includes one?

| we don't get them in England, but judging by your description I think I will move to Utah and start a collection! They sound great. I bet you get little kids starting swordfights with them in the middle of the diner. Future fencers being trained into the right way of thinking. Nice!

| Little kids!!??
not only little kids but adult fencers with a few cocktails under their belts as well...
If you really want some of them I'm sure someone could send you a sample or two in the mail....
Now I'm trying to remember if any of the bars around here actually use them. Sounds like I need to go on a reconnoiter!!
Send me a PM and I'll mail you some. I promise they won't have been used for anything more complex than picking a pimento...

| thanks but no thanks hawaii kid - I am not paying the air mail on that, even if it is for something as cool as little swords. To be honest, I have four nice big ones with me whenever I need them....
(i am one very well equipped individual)

| only four?
Even if you don't want me to send them to you (and I probably would have paid the postage too. Oh well) I'm on a mission now to see which bars have them and which don't. There's 16 liquor drinking establishments in our little town of 10,000 individuals. I figure I can get to all of them in one weekend if I'm determined and have a good natured designated driver.
Who knows, maybe I'll pick up a sponsor for our next tournament!
What's the worst that can happen? I've been told "no" plenty of times....
