[at-l] Newlywed Hikers

     Kahley, this is a small repayment.
     
     
     Two hikers, friends for ages, finally break down and tie the knot. And 
     where do they choose to honeymoon, but on the trail. (Natch!)
     
     Their first evening together as newlyweds comes, and they make a 
     leanto home for the night. As the gentleman takes off his boots and 
     socks, the woman looks over and notices his curled toes and blackened 
     toe nails.
     
     "What on Earth happened to your toes?" she askes.
     "Tolio," he responds.
     "You mean 'Polio'" she askes?
     "No," he says, "Tolio. All these years of heavy boots and stiff 
     downhills -- takes their toll."
     
     He doffs his pants next, and she looks over and notices his knarly 
     knees, lumpy and misshapen.
     
     "What on Earth happened to your knees?" she askes.
     "Kneesles," he responds.
     "You mean 'Measles'" she askes?
     "No," he says, "Kneesles. All these years of heavy pack weights and 
     ferocious uphills -- takes their toll."
     
     He drops off his underwear (coolmax), and moves to put on his 
     trail-pjs as the night breezes chill. She looks over...
     
     "Let me guess," she says, "'Smallcox'?"
