Judges 4:21 "But Jael, Heber's wife, picked up a tent peg and a hammer and went quietly to him while he lay fast asleep, exhausted. She drove the peg through his temple into the ground, and he died." NIV
And you thought that you were having a bad week.
I actually tried to get someone to recite that as their favorite scripture during the share time on the prison trip a couple of weeks ago, but Tito pointed out that one of the offenders might have shouted out, "Hey, that's why I'm in here!"

A dear friend of mine has the middle name Jael. The literal meaning is two-fold: mighty warrior and little mountain goat.
Because of these meanings and the inspirational story of what a woman can do if she gets a man drunk and has a tent peg in her hand, we're thinking of naming our daughter Jael. Then, all will tremble in her wake.
@mab - scary . . .
@Papa Steve - It's all AB's fault. He was supposed to seriously represent when he read Scripture.
