Is it a cane with a hidden sword? Shoots laser beams? Crafted from the bones of your enemies?

Had to use a cane for the first 6 years after the strokes - not going to lie and say you get used to it. You don't. It's a pain in the ass to navigate.

When I turned fifty (OOF!) this year, my friends got me a gag gift of a walking cane with a bicycle bell and a small liquor bottle attached to the shaft.

Yeah, I think it's 'round here somewhere still.
