    It ain't hard. You start a thread, and below the post box you will find a check box to make it a poll. when you check that and hit the create thread button, it will walk you through the process.

    I'm the Hobbit so I should probably consider some kind of sword or dagger....

    Don't you have to be in one of the Poll forums to have that option, Rock? Can you just make a poll in the Homemade Gear forum, for example?

    I think you can. I haven't messed with it. You might even be able to make one here.

    Hi from Front Royal, VA.

    I haven't been online very much lately, so I don't know if this has already showed up... SOBO hiker, Beater, is carrying a plastic samurai sword sticking out of his backpack. To go with it, he wears a flashy skin-tight red shirt with a Z slashed in the front and bear claw marks in the back.
    If not NOW, then WHEN?

    Just don't bring a sword to a gunfight. Remember what happened in Indiana Jones...

    It's gonna be ok.

    Yeah - dude should have thrown his sword. Didn't one of the Highlander swords shoot the blades out? That's the one to get. Heavy, though.

    Lee Horsely's sword from the movie "The Sword and the Sorcerer" had three blades that shot out.

    I was in Gatlinburg over the weekend. I have never seen so many stores that carry swords. This must be the place where everyone buys one
