Duq Gets Underhanded

If you look closely, you'll see that Duq is getting ready to bowl his harpoon in Stupid George's direction underhanded, rather like a cricketer.

Interesting technique. I'd have thought overhand (thumb pointing up, fingers curled over the harpoon from the other side) would be a more efficient throwing position.

But what do I know? I am a humble Publicanatrix (not Tory!).

Actually, I think it's the "submariner" technique (because it come from underneath) perfected a Pirate: Kent Tekulve of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Chad Bradford of the Oakland A's throws the baseball that way now. -- Rosco X. Hatteb

Well, now that confuses me - if it's the sub-mariner technique, then why are the actual (and not substitute) Mariners not in the ruddy stickball championships? It's always these big-city Candystripers and Red Socks and whatnot.

Massages and neckrubs for all. Mister Ken, I've my eye on you and your bloggermonkey cheekiness.

Now try saying that one 3 times without laughing. And with that, I'm orf to me bed.

He might make the Top Ten Least Appealing In A Greasy Singlet awards, though. It's probably why he has so much free-floating anger. Poor old Duq.
