A very effective "instant weapon" is a copy of your local newspaper . After folding it in half 4 or 5 times it no longer feels soft like a newspaper but takes on the form of a solid piece of wood. "Glazed" eyes are more fun though ! Dave Peak @ !hotel!dxp "I am the God of Hellfire, and I bring you fire" - CWoA Brown
