You did it again! Another tidbit of fascinating and enjoyable albeit
(questionable?) folklore. Since I have unusually large hands (takes the
"Hippo" size chore glove available only from Gemplers catalog) that means
I could get by with using a pretty big stick on my wife Ha Ha. Of course
I wouldn't do a thing like that.
