or on the trigger of your gun?

Methinks Flint doth protest too much. About what, I knoweth not.

BigV, if you need flint, come to Missouri. We've got more frigging chert around here than you can shake a knapping tool at.

My family owns land in central Texas. My father grew up out there, in "the country." He always loved to go "arrow-head hunting" (searching for arrow-heads or arrow-head fragments on the ground, particularly after a good rain, or when the fields have been plowed). Over his lifetime, he has acquired a beautiful collection. I'll get a pic posted of his main display: his finest complete arrow-heads, layed out in a design, on felt, in a wall-hanging shadow box. He always wanted to name a child "Flint" and that was me. Flint.

Cool.

Those arrowheads would make a nice addition to the dodads thread. Or in this case, it would be a dad's dodad.

lumberjim thinkest that Flint doth shrink from this challenge. Lo, does he not believe in his own might? has he not discovered the 18 threads about Sandra Day Oconnor? This can be done, I say, and with no great cost of strength. Say on, Flint. Be thy shy? Or dost thy ignore this deed thou hast been charged with for some hidden reason? Art thou nittering? Hast thou sand in thy vagina?

Why is it that whenever I quit using drugs, everyone else starts back up again?

I just wanted to say that I now officially like Flint. I attribute this more to a change in his posting style since the AudioGalaxy incursion than to any particular adaptation on my part, but still...I like him now, and that's what the thread asked, right?
