"if you open a can of worms, it takes a bigger can to put them all back in.." I notice the same thing hold true for a jar of pickles. Not the sliced ones but the whole ones. Sometimes I'm amazed at how many they fit into a jar. I wonder how they get them all in there. Is there a special "Pickle Mallet" that they use to bang them in so tightly? Being a handy guy, I've got a ton of tools. One for just about any job I might come across. Got one of those big tool chests on wheels like the mechanics use. Draws sort out the various tool. Ratchets and sockets in one, screw drivers in another, pliers and other sort of wire cutters in their own space and hammers and crow bars in their proper spot. You get the idea. Out of all those draws I'm certain I don't have a pickle hammer. If you know if there is of such a tool, let me know. I'd love to get one. With youngsters I find they often take out the first pickle but realize that they don't like pickles so I'm stuck having to eat it because there is no way possible for me to figure out how to get that pickle back into the jar. Sorry this message isn't very debatable nor does it involve the slightest bit of politics unless of course democrats eat more pickles than republicans. Actually it's probably the other way around. I notice a lot of republicans often walking around like they just ate a bitter sour pickle. Their faces are often all puckered and tight lipped. (You know, almost like that odd face that Shrub makes when he's searching for a two syllable word to say. Sorta like that.) <just kidding> <Clappy goes off to Google and enters a term that has never ever been entered into that search bar of theirs. He types in "Pickle Hammer" and Google's engines slow to a crawl like throwing a old leather work shoe into the gears of Big Ben.> Let me know if you can shed a little light on this subject. Back to your regularly scheduled news. -BallpeenGerkinHammer
