So the new adventurer walks into the blacksmith's shop...
« on: February 08, 2007, 11:34:33 AM »
Adventurer: Yeah, I need a sword.

Blacksmith: Oh, great, we're having a sale today on flaming swords!

Adventurer: Ummmm...but, I haven't looted any tombs just yet...

Blacksmith: No worries, it's a BIG sale.  $10.  Right over there!

Adventurer: [picks up sheathed sword]  COOL!  Let's see...[starts to unsheath it]

Blacksmith: NOOOOO!!!!

SWORD: Oh wow, this is great, I'm naked in public and being held by a MAN!  FABulous!!!

Welcome back Jim.  Missed you, but understood you were slaying dragons in other galaxies.

Glad to see you, especially to find you in such a good mood.

Damned if I know why I even thought of that, but my first instinct was to figure out who to inflict it on...

Blacksmith:  What can I do you for, sir?

I still don't get the original joke. Is that a gay exhibitionist pyromaniac sword?

CAnnoneer, have you heard the term "flaming homosexual"?  A flamboyantly or obviously homosexual man is sometimes referred to as a "flamer."

Flaming can be (or was) applied to just about anything. As in I shot a flaming good match today and when I left I was 4th in the Civilian Expert category for CT. Bullseye pistol, of course. We'll see if it holds. I managed to take out a couple that usually give me trouble.  One of em by a point. grin

Have a flamingly fabulous rest of your day.  cool

But the question arises what caliber is best to thwart the flaming sword.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.
