ahem. (stop) just for the record, if any of the persons present at this incident were flirting, it was the four guys, not the spry young maiden.
you're right that it comes in handy for fending off precipitating bovines and hail, as well as occcasionally bludgeoning (well-deserving) shums though.
why do you think i'm so thrilled to have it back ?
