 Who hired the belly with the'brella fella
 Somebody PLEASE get the stand-in a real sword

    Hilarious! The guy with the belly has a sword and is choosing to fight with the umbrella. He's either overconfident or not too bright. Or maybe they're fighting over the umbrella?

    He must've pulled from his right-side scabbard instead of his left...such a rookie....or else someone played a trick on him. I love your film-making take on this week's picture, Peggy!

    Cut! is right, Peggy. Excellent! :) In another second he will be all cut up. If he gives in I am betting he will lose an ear so he won't ever forget being disgraced.

    Jim;

    At the very least his brella will look like a piece of origami.
    Might be pretty, as long as he still has his fingers!
    Have a great week and see you next time!

    He looks more like a "sit-in" than a stand in! Whoever hired him must have been desperate! LOL!
