So that's what they're for
I was sat on the beach in Kuta and one of those chaps selling blowpipes and bows-and-arrows stopped by.
Him: Hey. You want look?
Me: I have no use for a bow-and-arrow.
Him: Use for decoration. See. Looks good.
Me: I don't even have a home to put it in. What would I possibly do with it?
Him: It's good for killing cat, see? You can use to shoot cat.
Me: But I like cats.
Him: OK. See you.
Hey Matt, Do people eat cats and dogs there?
Awesome.
start 2010 with smiles from your story =)
They sell everything on that beach.
Sentimentality aside, cat-hunting sounds too easy. Instead, why not team up with the cats and use the bow and arrow to hunt rats?
Speaking of cats, I recently discovered a place literally crawling with them. (Fortunately for the cats, it's a long way from Bali.)

That cat place looks amazing! Hahaha. I must make a point to go there one day.
awesome!
it must be nice, though, to be in a place where you can reason with these guys.
LOL!!!
must be horrible to see someone shooting a cat using a bow and arrow… but the again… to each of his own… LOL
