Well, I know how to ride a motorcycle really well and I have some old
hockey equipment I could probably use. I've got a sledgehammer that I
could weld to a chain of some sort for a nice swinging weapon. I've
got an old fishing spear that might take a fellow's eye out at 20
paces.
seriously though, it's not that I would WANT to live in a road warrior
type world, I just want to LIVE.
