My father once blade me "Son, be careful. He who lives by the pun, dies by the pun." We had this conversation over lunge at a quaint little bistro. Our waitress, Salle, offered some Saber like advice. "Puns will foil your appetite. Have some pie." Well, that really touche'd my soul, I can tell you. From that day forward I made sure to be en guard for puns lest they sneak into my conversation and force me to epee the price.<P>I only slipped up once, and this big scottish bastard sword vengance on me and my descendants, then he tried to hilt me and pommel me into submission. I katana bus that was heading out of the general area quickly, believe you me! But I can't blame him, for puns are dishonorable. In fact, once a Ninjato me that he wouldn't even use puns, they were so horrific. He said they were for cutlass worms who can't stomach a real fight. <P>Dirkspite avoiding puns, though, he had a sharp wit. However, it was vengance that drove him. He told me of the parry night when his Mother and sisters were taken from from him by a roving band of rapierists. That's why he chose his dark path. (Note he had a scimitar experiance to Batman losing his parents!) Now he hunts the hunters with his only friend, a semi tamed bird of prey he nursed back to health. A falchion, I believe.<P>Indeed, I have learned my lesson when it comes to punning. Don't do it! It goes beyond the impale!<P>------------------
