I was in Crystal River today visiting an archaeological park that hosts a number of Native American shell middens. I spoke with the ranger for a while about the serious spear tips on display and how bad that big, cold hunk of stone would feel piercing one's rib cage.
Him: "Imagine one of those coming from an atl atl."
Me: "I've always wanted to fire one of those things."
Him: "Hang on a sec, I'll be right back."
And he returns with a fucking deer bone atl atl for me to try out. I sucked at it. My two shots were straight, but only went about 20 yards. I would starve if this was my only means of procuring dinner.
That is not my story though. I stopped at the Circle K in Crystal River on my way home for a bottle of water and noticed something very similar to those self service cappuccino machines that do like French Vanilla and hot chocolate and shit. The glaring difference was in the product you pump out of it.
Wait for it....
You'll never believe this...
