Never strike a dragon with a rolled-up newspaper. Got it.
Actually, having never read the books nor seen the movie, I hope I’m not standing on well-covered ground, but every time I see that commercial, this is the thought that pops in to my head. Well, one other thing as well, but you’ll have to come back on Thursday for that.

The dragon’s fire didn’t burn the newspaper too…Maybe it want to read the comics page?
Also: loving the new site design…
Well, he was holding it above his head preparing to strike, so it was (mostly) out of the blast zone!
Frumph made with the site design pretties. I’m working on some neat features though. Keep an eye on things…
The daughter and I enjoyed the movie quite a bit, thank you very much. Nonsensical at times but fun just the same. Best if you’re a dog owner really, although pet behaviors of all sorts figure in. Never read the books but I have a feeling my daughter will pick them up.
Not to spoil anything, but the main dragon character, “toothless”, would leave you requiring far more than bactine if you were hit…
Funny though it may be, I’ve not heard of dragons being particular about their meat so I’m curious as to the need to throw in a virgin reference? I thought that was, you know, ancient religous sacraficial territory?
I would remind you of the movie Dragonslayer. Virginal was a requirement.
No. I refuse to acknowledge anything regarding your reference. You can’t possibly be sane! [ack]
I’ll make an exception just long enough to point out that I believe the virigin “requirement” was the king’s offer, not the dragon’s demand…
Well, these guys seem to think that it’s valuable. Fourth paragraph… http://www.paganlibrary.com/editorials/dragons_reconsidered.php
