So my house is now full of relatives, mostly under age 10. Things are getting kinda dizzying, especially having the house to just me, mom, and dad. Right now I'm at Susan's and we're getting pizza in like an hour. Pizza Hut is weird. So anyway, my mom's parents are staying with us now, and I drove them and mom to an antique store cause mom and grandma like that sorta thing. While we were in there, my grandpa and I were looking at the friggin' AWESOME knives and swords. When we saw this claymore (think England and knights), my grandpa told me about this scene from a movie where a British leader was having a war meeting with a leader from India. The British guy was deciding if they would go to war. The Brit says "Look at what I can do." He puts a pipe between two chairs, lets his sword fall, and BANG, cuts it in two, albeit not a clean cut. The Indian guy says "That's nothing." He throws a silk handkerchief into the air and holds out his scimitar. As the handkerchief falls, it lands on the sword, and is sliced in two as if nothing were in its way. The Brit decided not to fight them. Apparently India has mastered the art of swordmaking. Not only are they the sharpest, but they can bend as well. I just thought that was kool. Until next time. BYE!
