In the video, which was posted Tuesday, the Republican governor is sitting at his desk in the Capitol admiring a 2-foot-long folding knife before looking up to thank followers for their budget-balancing ideas.I think the over-reaction to the video is silly (lighten up folks!) but I'm still amazed about the knife. I mean really ... wtf can you use it for?

A two foot long, folding knife?
Seriously. Why do they even make those things? What's the utility to them?

I think, as we talk about those things, we make,see and admire them in the same way.They are just for a show-off.
Not long ago I met at a group of teen-aged hikers. One was carrying a machete, I'd guess, 14-18 inches long. He claimed it was for defending himself from rattlesnakes. --a reasonable fear, I guess, but his friends were amused by my explanation that to even use his machete on a rattlesnake, he has to get within the snake's striking distance.
