James you rascal!
I was doing some demolition in the basement and came across a previous owner's technical library. There is also a catalog for video cassettes of similar technical nature with a receipt that has a previous homeowner's name. It was from 1974, so not the couple I bought the house from.

As I was taking my seat at McDonald's, I couldn't help but notice the most handsome man and his five-year-old son. You see, the boy was tired, cranky, and being a pill about eating his lunch. The gorgeous father was doing his best to cajole the little boy to eat, right up until the toddler threw his burger on the floor. That was the gorgeous man's breaking point. He took the boy, put him over his knee, and started spanking. At that point I'd seen enough. I stood up, threw my burger on the floor, and exclaimed, "You need to fix my attitude too!"

I remember being threatened with a bare bottom spanking when I was around 12 by the wife of mom's brother. That gave me a mix of anticipation & dread....the spanking never happened, but it did give me an awareness.... Here's a popular spot in Vegas: https://youtu.be/EIgQMzu9C94

One-legged girl should get a little more compassion.

I think that's a spatula. They make a nice, snappy, smacking sound with great sting to follow. Like a wet bullwhip.

I'll keep my eye out for Palm and Paddle volume 2 so you have a complete collection.
(I looked on ebay; nothing there, but I'm sure I'm a marked man now)

Palm & Paddle Number 2 is rare and collectible. Many thought it crossed the line and threw it out.

So, I googled Palm and paddle for a “friend” and it came up with a restaurant in MO and some references to canoeing type information.
We’re going to need see more pages... I meant my friend is going to need to see more.

My brother and I were threatened with a meeting with the board of education more than just occasionally.
However, one day the threat progressed to an actual assault whereupon my brother disarmed the unit, snapped the board in half over his knee and handed it back to the unit without commentary. Lesson learned by all in attendance. |

I saw that story in Palm & Paddle Number Four. I think it was "Crowbob and Crowjoe Reject the Paddle in Kalamazoo."

Slightly off topic, but, whatever.
My second house I bought in 1999 was bought from a man well into his 80's. He kept falling down the steep driveway and needed to move. When we viewed the house? There was a bedroom filled and stacked waist high of more colorful media. |

The story is sort of related to the original topic.
As a teenager I worked for a place that exported bales of sheep's wool to places around the world including Russia. Feeling sorry for the boys in Russia that did the same job as us but didn't have Playboy and Penthouse magazines lying around the lunchroom, we put them in the bales going to Russia. They must have been well received as Russia was a very closed off and controlled country in the 1970's. |

Tabby had the entire first year of Palm & Lotion, too. It was in plastic bags, but for a different reason.
