Anything can be dangerous, depending on how it’s used. Like people letting their kids play on a treadmill and then getting all up in arms when they get hurt….
When he was my favorite 7-year-old, I could knock him over with a pillow. Now that he’s my favorite almost-10-year-old, I can’t knock him down unless he’s laughing first.
In one of Ian Fleming’s books, he described some of the training involving impromptu weapons. He said they could kill a man with a rolled up magazine. A swim noodle might be a challenge but Sean Connery’s James Bond would be up to it. :)
Yep, out on the street is the best place to do spy training. And, of course, the best instructor is someone who not only has never done any spying but has never even met a spy.
Not sure about using it as weapon – one could force into someone’s mouth I suppose – but for assorted problems in our little RV it works great – including we use cut up pieces put in the door of the dorm sized fridge it has to fill keep the soda cans from moving around when we are driving – especially as the trip goes on and we have emptied cans and gotten rid of them, but also – our electric cord (30 amp) comes out of an outside cabinet and we were concerned about bugs (and tiny animals) getting into the cabinet – we put a piece of pool noodle around the cord and wedge into the entrance hole (which is larger than the cord with folded sections which are suppose/used to close around the cord) to seal it.

Do not noodle your noodle! At least not in public.

A good spy can weaponize anything.

And it’s an unloaded pool noodle. We don’t want any accidents while you’re in training.

There is a lot of humiliation that goes into being a spy guy. Embrace the noodle. Be the noodle. No one suspects a noodle. Good spying, that.

There has got to be a flashlight stuffed in one end for effect – there just has to be.

I get the feeling there’s a “Noodle Incident” coming up…

Wrong. Conditioning first. You have to be in tip top shape. THEN and only then will you be able to train with the NOODLE…..

To succeed, Clayton needs to use his noodle.

So his weapon of choice is a wet noodle.

Respect the Noodle. Just ask Josh. (If you don’t get it- google Josh fight)

I haven’t been reading all the Comments for this story line. Has “Double Nought” been mentioned yet?

Beats the kid who insists on starting with shurikens with the intent of working their way up to Uzis in a fortnight.
