"Just so," I retorted.  "Well, that is not at all the way to win a fight, for, you see, your bullet has hit no one.  Next time you shoot, aim straight at some particular individual, and make sure that your gun is pointing straight before you pull the trigger.  For example--you see that big man running straight toward us, the man with the scythe on the end of a pole?  Well, keep your eye on him for a moment, and see what happens."
