    Reminds me of when I worked in operations with ATF, you know they had can openers classified as weapons of mass destruction. You have no idea what they can do. We had special trained dogs sniffing them out at the airports and we used to break down doors to get them. We had panel trucks with special sound transducers and when granny was opening her can of Tuna we would know and bust the door down and wrestle her to the floor to get the opener. Once we thwarted a grand theme by terrorists to break into an appliance store warehouse and steel hundreds of can openers. They would be used to create the mother of all weapons. if it had been successful it would have taken out thousands of people and brought down who knows how many airliners.

    The dreaded "dirty" can opener.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
