Aegishjalmur Member Registered: 03/20/08 Posts: 32 Loc: United States	(In reference to single hand sword training) "They didn't play tag with little fairy wands, they killed people with sharp, pointy objects....now get up and try again mate!" and this one too... "Determination....that's not determination...determination is when you get run through with a sword, and you pull it out of your gut and kill the owner....and until that time comes I don't want to here any complaints." _________________________ Still we've sighted only sea till now As we sail I sometimes wonder how far to Asgaard.
