Exactly WHAT are those gloves for (giggle) in non-scented restaurants when owners get hostile?

You can reach in and turn them inside out. The owners, that is. Or the patrons...

This reminds me of something sort of completely off topic, but what the hell, maybe the Barking Owner of the Scent-Free restaurant will be amused.

Several weeks ago, one of the sows at TLC Ranch was having some problems giving birth. So Jim (the rancher) phones up Justin (the butcher) and says, "You need to bring your wife out here right now." Hilary is quite slender, and had to put her arm up to there inside the sow to pull out a piglet. (Jim's wife, Becky, flat out refused.)

Hilary says the sow was quite put out by her over-familiarity.

That's not at all an uncommon scenario when livestock are birthing. In fact, I'm guessing that's what those gloves are actually for. That or artificial insemination (also quite common).

Eewww.

Diane Ackerman wrote about um, feeling up elephants that way. I don't remember if she mentioned gloves, either.

I met Diane Ackerman. Her "Natural History of the Senses" is one of my favorite books.

I love how this thread has devolved, myself, but would hate to think that Dear Liza's parents would see how her invisible friends behave.

That bully restaurant owner, on the other hand...

"Why, I oughtta..." comes to mind.

There are really no emotcons to do the job here. Which should suffice for the original topic as she planned it.

Can we then deduce that Jim & Justin & Becky & Hilary are all hamfisted, though perhaps in different senses of the term?

I get "page cannot be found" when I click on it. Goddamn computers.
Never assume animosity when stupidity could be the cause.

People like her are always scared. It’s a lonely world when you’re just so damned right and everyone else is so stupid. That’s why God made cats.

I think Worth1000 must deactivate links to photos that are linked with "bandwidth theft."
