Barry,

 BM> Personally I am in general favour of a spanking when warranted.  One
 BM> swat may be sufficient, sometimes two or three.  Anything beyond is
 BM> probably a sign the person issuing the punishment is out of control.
 BM> And not really a punishment but more correction.

  I had more than my share of such growing up, and I consider myself
better for it. These wimps you say "You can't spank them, as it'll
ruin their self esteem", are so full of crap, their colons would be
embarrassed.

 BM> I remember being spanked two, maybe three times.  The warning of being
 BM> in  trouble, or about to be in trouble was "do you want [to be spanked
 BM> with] the wooden spoon?".  I don't recall ever being struck with a
 BM> wooden spoon much less one being taken out of the drawer but do know if
 BM> I got that threat the next step would not be pleasant for me.

  I used to tell my late wife "Beat Me!! Whip Me!!". She'd just look at
me, and deadpan "No". <G>

 BM> Sort of along that to me the old movie scene of the camera panning from
 BM> the couple about to make love on the beach to the ocean and sky was a
 BM> little silly, OTOH I don't paricularly want to see them ripping off
 BM> their clothes and "doing the nasty" either.  (Then I'm thinking of the
 BM> blooper: "durn elastic won't break/tear!".)

  No telling what's going to be done nowadays. Netflix got indicted by
the state of Texas for "promoting kiddie porn" with that "Cuties" deal.

 BM> Wrong PIN?
 DS>   Or not enough X's. :P

 BM> Should start with O's!   ...Hmm: the phrase (and song) is "X's and
 BM> O's".

  Now, I'll hear that song all night...and have to be part of the meme,
where a guy is in the hospital bed, with a ton of bandages wrapped around
his head. The doctor comes in, with a huge jar of musical notes, and says
"Good News, Mr. Smith!!". We got rid of that tune that was stuck in your
head!!" <G>

 DS> ... How do self addressed stamped envelopes do such??

 BM> I think it's something like tattooing oneself!

  I wish they made the stamps taste better. :P
