[if you put razor blades on one of those things...]

  Hi there.  In order to liven things up, I thought I'd describe a game
which myself and a friend invented some years ago.  It kept us occupied for
a couple of summers.  Anyway, find yourself a little-used street with curbs
and a 165g that you don't particularly care about.  Stand an arbitrary
distance apart- 70 feet is about right.  The object is simple.  Just get the
frisbee past the other guy, with the catch that it must land in the street
past a "goal line" (usually an agreed-upon crack).  Also, all shots must
impact the street in front of the goal line as well. Thus a variety of skips
and rollers may be used.  Curbs make things interesting (they are considered
part of the street), and grass/driveways/trees/telephone poles are out of
bounds.  Be careful, because you can really pound up your shins on those wide
saves.  Long socks help.  This game can even be played indoors in a gymnasium
or the like if you have the space.  Skipping frisbees on hard floors back and
forth is somewhat suicidal (not to mention throwing your leg in front of one),
but hardly more so than guts.  Watch out for innocent bystanders.
