Yes, Chris, it was just a good natured jab, as it was when my friends started kidding me about it.

Glen... These are small devices that just make a loud distinctive clicking noise. They are used to train dogs and horses. I wonder if these type clickers could somehow be used on the ball field to train AA players.

I'm fine. Just a little banter. I know nobody knows me but I'll throw a few jabs and take a few jabs. Ain't no biggie, that's why I offered the additional funny, well sort of funny, OK it seemed funny at the time.

BTW, are you really on; # of posts patrol duty

Scott,
I think I'm jealous - maybe. I was the first B member to hit 100, but have been far less active over the past year.

Obviously, no one here has experienced dealing with nuns in a parochial school setting. If you had, you would be very familiar with a clicker.

Of course, you would also be familiar with speedy rulers and flying erasers and chalk!

A 'clicker' is the little metal thing, shaped like a frog, that Sister Mary Joseph (of the 'Sister's of Perpetual Suffering') used to prompt us to kneel (1 click), stand (2 clicks) or sit (3 clicks) in church. I still have nightmares...

They still come in the new version of Jeopardy home games, but I break them so easily when I play with the family. Now, I use my INDICATOR which makes this wonderful clicking sound to buzz in!!!
