i have heard of teh hoods woods videos.

www.survival.com

i believe it says vietcong cross, and as far as i can tell that is the "apache star" that is a big wood cross with sharpened or unsharpened ends. the idea is to double the amount of hitting points of a throwing stick, not to impale the animal. i may be wrong, but that is what i get out of what it says.

if you want peace prepare for war&&&&my site

How much weight would be a rock have to weigh for a posum, not that youd ever catch me eating one but how much weight would be needed for those incase you diddnt have rabbits and had to trap scavengers.
