"The school part of the plan has it's obvious problems. Heading into the forest staying close to the lake is probably a better idea. Build your camp high up in the trees and you will never have to worry about zombies during the night.

I can personally testify to the lethality of the target arrow. This one time...at band camp...I watched a dude take a practice arrow right in the head. The arrow deflected off a tree...changed coarse...and killed him dead.

Bows are only good at close range. It's a lot harder to aim a bow than it is a gun. People who are good at it can be very dangerous...but the unskilled archer normally hurts himself and hits $hit with every arrow fired.

There's always gonna be time to practice. One of my friends (who is a gun nut) has decided to get himself a bow and a feck load of arrows. That is his solution for when the bullets run out. "

"Yeah, they're not as good for hunting, but deadly enough. Remember, anything can be deadly under the right circumstances. Where in the Head?

Are you a band geek?"

"Huh. I wonder what would have happened if it hit him in a thicker part of the skull... I suppose the angle would also matter... I think it would have still got him.

So that was back when they still let kids touch bows? Dang.

Bah, are there no other band geeks here? And band camp is fun, I'd know. = )"

"Bah, I'm not old enough to remember it. I remember that I got to play with a 'kiddie bow' (like 25 lbs draw) when I was 10. And I among all of my friends owned a pocketknife.

Ahh lawn darts. The concept is just hilarious. I have an urge to add rockets...

Many people die in car accidents. Ironicially kids arn't allowed to go anywhere/ walk there (at least by themselves). I've started walking to the gym everyday recently, and I've seen mabye one semi regular pedestrian."

"There is actually a large courtyard I forgot to mention. It would have room for the barn animals and a good amount of crops."

"I still get to throw knives and hatchets at summer camp here in the States. It's really fun. Archery, .22lr rifle shooting, throwing sharp stuff. I even play Five Finger Fillet sometimes, but don't tell my scoutmaster."
