    This would've been mighty useful in my elementary school days, when wooden rulers moonlighted as rubber band guns.

    Since I'm a minimalist like Steve Lee I'm going to just paint mine all black.


    I'll also hold it up and wave it around in my hand to help the paint dry faster..

    You say that now, Mark.


    But when Sister Mary Catherine beats you senseless with a yardstick, you'll think differently about the threat profile of someone holding a ruler.

    @closhedbb: Not really, a 9mm is easy to get a hold of, and easy to dispose of. Carrying around an expensive specialized handgun is just begging to be convicted.
