I was wondering what the heck a "borearend" was (his "device") but then I realized it must be an anagram for something. Apparently, it stands for "render a bo." Now, even a CG newbie would have little trouble rendering an image of a
Japanese quarterstaff (being basically just a long cylinder after all) so it appears that the sick bastard is interested in producing lard from the Bo people in Gongxian County of southwest China's Sichuan Province, famous for their
hanging coffins.
