  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Kind of weird and random, but...

If you want to learn to flip a balisong, I would suggest getting a trainer model. It has the same weight and feel of the real deal. but does not have a "live" blade. It is much safer for flipping and learning and because of the lack of real blade, is legal in most areas.

Coach

Hmm, yeah i've considered a trainer but I'd prefer a real knife... one that can actually do something :)

i've got a (pretty crappy 10$) balisong atm and I love flipping it... the knife was extremely sharp so I taped the edges and tadaa, never got cut since I taped it :)

I want to learn how to paint happy trees.
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Bob Ross. I even have a T-shirt with his picture and it says "happy trees." I used to get into arguments with my high school art teacher about the glory that is Bob Ross. She said he was all about technique. I say he was a phenomenon worthy of comparisons to Michelangelo and Picasso.

For some odd, unknown reason, I have recently developed a desire to buy and learn how to throw boomerangs. I know that may not be so weird to some of our overseas friends here, but it just isn't something you see every day here. I think it would be fun to learn how to do, give me something to get me outside and active, and be fun to use with my physical science students.

lol! Nice one... we Aussies don't chuck em round as much as you think :p

When I was a kid I learnt how to throw one on a sport and rec camp with school... and when i'd go camping as a kid with my family we'd find a big empty space and try... lol... i think its more a novelty than anything else though

Have fun running to get it ;) Or ducking if it comes near you^_^



I don't know that theres anything strange I want to do :scratch:
