I concur with the majority opinion. However, as Judge Long did in Harris v. State, 717 So.2d 868 (Ala.Cr.App. 1997), I write specially to urge the Alabama Supreme Court to reconsider its holding in Ex parte Cobb, 703 So.2d 871, 877 (Ala. 1996), that "the use of fists or other body parts cannot constitute the use of a `deadly weapon' or `dangerous instrument' as those terms are defined" in § 13A-1-2(11) and (12), Ala. Code 1975.
