Did you take care not to touch it with bare skin & properly sterilize
it? As a used mace, may pick up blood from people with diseases you'd
rather not know about...
Ensure that you know how to use it effectively, as PostgreSQL developers
are surly lot and respond well to a good bit of applied violence (just
ask Tom Lane about his extensive list of fractured bones & other old war
injuries). If you are not sure how to use it, then there are plenty of
sites on the web to help you, such as:
http://www.lordsandladies.org/maces.htm
Also ensure you apply for the correct licence from your local Police
Station, as they will be very interested in how you intend to use such a
weapon, so it is very important to consult them before you first use it!
Cheers,
