Monday morning quarterbacking. What do ya think?

In an armed conflict where I needed an ally, if I had to choose between one Nepalese Gurkha foot soldier armed only with a Kukri knife, or five people picked out of the phone book who each had a gun, I think I would pick the Gurkha.

Good point. I have a Kukri knife mounted near my fireplace I broght back from Nepal pre 9/11. It’s a very ominous looking weapon.
