Yeah, thats what happens when you spend far too much of the childhood reading! Sad really, I should get out more!
Your right about Buffy's crossbow bolts though, wicked nasty points on those things (They look cool visually).
The word bodkin was used as a swear word back in the day (or in the middle ages). It means Gods wounds (the wounds of christ...the expression zounds has the same origin), and I think Shakespeare uses it.
And those Perisan and Islamic doctors. dead clever fellas. One Islamic doctor is wrote a treaty on the circulation of blood centuries beforeWilliam Harvey "discovered" circulation!
