The Ragnar/axe story for Aurelia, as promised.

Over at the thrown weapons range, having thrown sharp things, I was talking to Darius and John Frye (It's a Saxon! Kill it! Kill it!) (And yes, I did point and shout, for old-time's sake) and we were watching Ragnar throw axes. Mostly single-bladed, and then he brought out this huge double-bladed monster that one would not think out of place with a lumberjack. So he was throwing that (two-handed, over the head), and about three throws in, it hit the target just completely wrong and the handle broke. And the head goes blade-down into the grass pretty emphatically. And Darius says something along the lines of "Hey, you were lucky it wasn't your foot."

I just reports 'em. And no, I do not know if Darius knows the Ragnar/Pennsic/axe story or not.

Memage.

This is so wrong in so many right ways...

It's a rotary dial cellular phone. Which I would want if it weren't $400.
