The other day my rake handle broke so I had to shorten it and whittle down the new end to fit into the rake.

As I was whittling it down with my Buck knife (had it for over 40 years, looks like a small Bowie) I said to myself: "Self, you're pretty good at sharpening sticks......"

Been talking to myself and shaking my head a lot lately........ ;) ;D :rofl:

For the benefit of the young guys.
Re. Star Trek. "Arena"
Capt. Kirk improvised a cannon to battle a Gorn creature. He mixed his own gun powder and stuffed a bamboo bbl with diamonds as projectiles.
This is one of the most beloved episodes of the original series.
