Just waiting for somebody to put up the picture of Mr. Sulu with a sword. Why is it always Sulu with a sword? Why doesn't anyone post Catherine Zetta Jones with a sword?

How did the fight start? Did the “victim” invade the
swordsman house and was fended off with a near killing
blow? Also , why would anyone, once he sees a sword not
run like crazy? The yahoo report is very sparse on
details....well, probably written by a bunch of
yahoos anyway..(ta da .... rim shot)

“Touch me with that hand again and you won’t get it back” or words to that effect. He wasn’t kidding apparently.
