I fondly remember reading newspapers on a stick at the then local library.

That was the On-A-Stick era in American culture. Popsicles, corn dogs,
newspapers. And we topped it off at the end by adopting fondue as the
centerpiece for dinner parties.
My wife is recovering from an operation and somebody sent her a basket of
fruit-on-a-stick. It's cut up like daisies and other flowers. Fondue
memories, they are.

I hope the operatation is a success. I'm having a chicken burrito atm,
dipping the beans and burrito in cheese sauce. Yummy.
A carmel apple sounds good atm.

Yeah, she fell and broke her humerus in four places and shattered her
shoulder. They stuck a titanium rod and three screws in her. I offered some
Loctite but they said she'd hold together without it.
So I'm now a full-time nurse. She'll recover, but they say it will take six
months.

So now you can do as I did and learn how to put a bra ON, etc.
