now that thanksgiving is behind us it's time to look toward Christmas. i was doing some online shopping and found this item description to be rather amusing.

"Your secret weapon for self-defense! If a bad guy wants to make trouble, you'll have a way to fight back. With a flick of the wrist, this heavy-duty steel baton expands to 26in. long, ready to stave off any attacker. A few well-placed pokes or whacks should do the trick, incapacitating your assailant and putting him in a world of hurt! The diamond-pattern rubber handle gives you a good grip. Collapses down to 9 1/2in.L for storage. Includes nylon sheath with belt loop. Check state and local laws before purchasing. Not for sale to minors."

the best thing that review someone wrote saying, "i recommend leaving it in your car because you never now when you'll need it"
