The partical acellerator didn't work propperly, so we came home early. It fact we arrived on site in time to be told that that it was a bit of a waste of time; I have no signed atoms for almosthonest. On the plus side, there were Itallian resteraunts. My head of department kept tryng to get us all drunk. My not drinking appears to confuse him horribly.


Also, I have crafted rudementory poi, from string and keys, and will shortly be maiming my face, the lights, and other things that get in the way of them. hooray.

Unfortunately, my length of half inch steel link is at elmyra's, so I have not yet crafted rudementory flails. Hopefuly I'll be quite good at missing my face by the time I get hold of it.

Try my patented technique for avoiding the dreaded Chain-face situation. I call it "duck and cover". Basically, when things begin to go awry throw the chains into the air then shield your face and head with your arms, perhaps whilst entering a fetal postion.

An attempted controlled decelleration seems to end with Chain-Face, Chain-Crotch or, at best, Chain-Shin. Alternatively you can whip the floor, that works quite well.

The next step is to make fire poi. Good news is I've only ever set fire to myself using a fire staff...

At least you got a little trip to Italy though!

I thought the next step was to attach spiked balls to the end of the flails. I guess I can set fire to them as well. Then I can viciously crush skulls and set heads on fire in one go, which should be a great saving in time.

of course by "spiked balls" I mean "brightly coloured ribbons" and by "viciously crush skulls" I mean "be pretty".
Obviously.

But setting heads on fire is ok?

Burny head time is the bestest.

-sad about no signed atoms-

I do own a pair of poi - tennis balls hidden in shiney fabric style thingy. I can't give them away, as they were a present, but long-term loans - say, in decades - are plausible.

One does not simply rock into Mordor.
