I once came within a point of actually winning a novice tournament, I, who never played any sport in school.<br /><br />Among the five of us we could only afford two electric foils and jackets, so at the tournaments we were like Indy teams between bouts, pulling the equipment off one and putting it on the next, often to the chagrin of our waiting opponents.<br /><br />Unhappily I never got any better. Over the years, in college and law school, I occasionally ran into someone who had fenced, but whenever I again took up the foil I was never competitive. And I'm afraid that, today, I also present a somewhat larger target.rick allenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07612435616018593956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827071479314474893.post-38944454448054232062012-03-26T05:42:44.114-07:002012-03-26T05:42:44.114-07:00I'd forgotten that; time to re-watch The Court...I'd forgotten that; time to re-watch The Court Jester!Anglocathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03218740053628978255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2827071479314474893.post-25985122683129639752012-03-26T04:30:53.551-07:002012-03-26T04:30:53.551-07:00Rathbone carried Danny Kaye to a solid swordfight ...Rathbone carried Danny Kaye to a solid swordfight in The Court Jester, as well.Vinnie Bartiluccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12031831695722239873noreply@blogger.com
