'thok' was the name of our gardener when I was a kid. I remember a time or two
that I was 'bamboosalled' by you. Always catching me with my guard down (was
that MY guard). Next thing knowed I, I was being skulliwackered with a big, ol'
wooden straw with a rubber on the end.  What a thru-hike I had. When I got
home, I ordered Avon.
