Re: TAPS
I'm sorry it upset you. I know there are 'trigger words' for some people, and I understand that. If it helps, I'll tell you now that the machete was and will only be used to go 'weed-whacking.' It is not used as a weapon. We have two of them that we used here.
As a paramedic, I saw several people who were attacked by someone using one. Not a pleasant situation.
I will scan ahead as I post the rest of this story to see if I can change the wording of certain utensils.
Respectfully,
Verwayne

BigV.....
That machete is a turn off for me. It brings back memories of a sweet little old man and woman I knew who owned and ran a small Bible Bookstore. One morning when they opened up a big crazy man with a machete came in the store and killed them both with it and took any money he could find including a big jar of change that was marked for a charity. It was terrible.
