>>I stood up and started swinging my
>>right arm around in giant circles.
>>After a few rounds of my right arm,
>>which was gaining speed on each
>>revolution, I screamed as I slammed
>>that sledge hammer down onto the
>>top of that wooden stake. I thought
>>the restaurant was empty, but this
>>couple in the far corner almost lost
>>their dinners. This was only an act,
>>you understand. Rich just loved it.
>>Practice makes perfect, yes? :-)
