"Among the six or seven of us, we all had the staple elements—Swiss Army knife, wrist rocket, eye black, as many bandannas as possible—so the equipment modifications and additions became key. I brought my homemade nunchaku (two long dowels tied together with a shoelace), wore the biking gloves I’d painted to look like Mel Gibson’s, and taped a steak knife to my leg. (I always liked to have some kind of knife taped to my calf.)"
