LOOKIN' SHARP

After watching yesterday's DEADLIEST WARRIOR rerun on the otherwise worthless Spike network, I could not get Japanese weaponry out of my head. Y'see, the episode in question sought to answer through science the age old question of who would win in a fight, a Viking or a samurai, and the information imparted had me hanging off my seat. I won't tell you how it turned out because you should see it in all its visceral awesomeness for yourself, but I will say that the show made me remember a warrior-fantasy vision with a katana, namely Lucy Lawless as Xena, moments before her final — and I do mean final — battle:

Happy Monday! (And no, I have not forgotten to continue work on THE XENA PROJECT, but that will takwe up a lot of time that I won't have for about the next month. Just so ya know.)
