I'm not gonna give you the answer. Anybody who doesn't know this one doesn't deserve to. 
I remember those silly bastards pretty well, but not their names.

A clavicle?

Love this quote from Wiki: quote:
Doc made everything look easy. In one story, "his hand drifted out at lightning speed." It sounds like an oxymoron, but Doc's fans knew what it meant.
Indeed. "Lightning speed" was just a slow "drift" for the Man of Bronze. I didn't read the whole series, but I did read a number of the novels. Pulp fiction at its pulpiest. Fun stuff!

That's one of those words I've learned and forgotten repeatedly over the years. My own repair method is usually the "melted shoelace" approach.

A couple of years ago I discovered boots with a side zipper. Buy 'em, put 'em on, lace 'em up snug, tie a double or even triple knot in the laces, the unzip 'em, take 'em off, and stuff the leftover lace between the tongue of the boot and the laces themselves. Never re-tie 'em, just use the zipper. The best ones have a little velcro tab to hold the zipper in place at the top.
The best part: no wear-and-tear on the aglets. They get used only once, and so remain nearly pristine, even if you're so hard on the boots that they come apart under you. 'Cause that's my main concern in footgear: good lookin' aglets. |

The Great Pyramid. (Both the Hanging Gardens of Babylon and the Colossus of Rhodes were closed late in the 1970's, due to declining ticket sales.)
