I believe my usage of the feat was rather appropriate and well within the spirit of the feat considering the Epic version they have shows a halfling wielding a frost giants axe that has a blade bigger than he is.  The feat is meant to be silly and absurd, to be useful in combat, and FUN for the player to have.  If you are the player and its not fun for you don't take it.  If you are the DM and its not fun for you....deal with it cause its not really meant for you.  Everyone has to remember that this is a FANTASY RPG where you are supposed to have and fun and be creative.  Otherwise there's no point in playing.</blockquote>
