ERRR...Brian....From the look on the Green guy's face...
the old phrase that Mr. Parker used to say comes to mind...
"We fight and make love at the same distance"?
Sorry, but that green guy just looks WAY TOO HAPPY to be there!

BEGOOD,
KENPOJOE

Interesting and funny in a poignant, truthful sort of fashion. In the old days of real telephone booths, we used to find one and practice fighting in it. To quote my old instructor, "If you're close enough, there's room enough".

Fellow Artists,
As a user of whips in manners martial, Indy is being an idiot. A "Dog whip (Sorry Gou)", about foot and a half long works wonders at close range. Also, the butt end of a bullwhip can be shot loaded and can be used as a very effective club. Also as there are knifes concealed in anything, I could see a concealed weapon oppurtunity here.
Just some food for thought,

Jeff,
See image below. It is used by sled dog drivers. Rules state the whip can't hit the dogs, so it's short enough that it won't. Makes nice little pop, pretty hard to crack because of it's length but when you get it, your image of distance and whips changes rapidly. The martial use of the whip is fascinting. And they make great toys. I'm not rich and can't afford myself a jet, but I still have something that hits about mach 1.2. They can cut and break bone, wrapping is immense fun. Kind of like Spideys webs if you work it right. I like singletails. The whole muliti-tail thing...yeah. Don't go for that. No need to worry. Just an Indiana Jone fan :D

I own a few whips, I was also thinking that you could just club that guy on the head. The end of the handle on a "cowboy" style whip is a hard metal knot.

Looks like Indiana Jones meets Shaggy to me.

The only time I had to defend against a whip, was after drinking too much on a Saturday night. Made more difficult because my hands were handcuffed while...ah...never mind.;)
