3 Sticks
3 Sticks, as requested
I don't know why you wanted it, but you did. You asked for it, so here it is. So I've been trying to get time to do 150 things (none of which are relevant) and have been ignoreing 150 other things (which are of vaugely more importance than the 150 that got ignored). Here are your three damned sticks and a sheet, nay, multiple sheets of teflon.

Not one sheet of teflon, but what appears to be MULTIPLE sheets of teflon! Boy howdy!
I was also set to pondering today, a thought which had not really crossed my conciousness that much until recently. How much having a pet affects productivity. I have a pet now... not many people know this, but I do. OK, so it isn't technically 'my' pet. It is a pet that happens to live in my house. Ok, so it's not technically 'my house', but it is the house which I happen to be renting. Half renting. Fuck, I don't know.

We have a cat. There that wasn't so hard to say. Except, it's not really 'our' cat, so much as 'luci-may's' cat. It's just living here for an indefinite period of time. Anyway, that is all well beside the point. It could be said that having another animal depending upon you for survival can make you more motivated. Better motivation, in turn leads to greater productivity. Therefore owning (or keeping, or reanting or leasing... whatever catches your fancy) a cat may lead to better productivity.

Not so. I have found that having a cat here only reduces my productivity, as every time I leave my desk to do something which technically should takeonly a few second (such as fill a water bottle), it takes me in the order of several minutes. This is because cats demand attention. Bastards.

The reason for their productivity gain is also the reason for their productivity loss. it's a double edged sword, made entirely of cats. This means that if you ever drop it in battle, it's assured to fall right way up, and not come when you call or need it. Probably much like a normal sword. As such, I dont' feel that there is much to be gained from making swords out of cats. It also calls into question the production of other weaponrt out of other animals.

The chicken-a-pault fo example sounds interesting in theory, if it were not for the winged and paniky nature of chickens. Sure, their wings are usless, but they can still affect their areodynamics, and thus make it increddibly difficult to aim such a device. Add to that their lack of weight. I don't think that they will be assisting in manyseiges in the near future, unless you wish to get paniky chiken excrament onto enemy soldiers.

I'm not really sure why they made it really.. it could have been some form of anti-vehicular thing.. just hope that they drop a load (or an egg) whilst flying over a vehicle, this covering the windscreen and possibly causing a crash. I don't know.

Anyway, chicken and cats aside, I am tired, so i will cut it short now and go sleep.
