Bayonets are tools that can split a large crowd into smaller crowds if used correctly. Unfortunately, the US Army no longer teaches the use of the bayonet.

I have today ended three straight days of hand therapy (an hour or so each day, not all at once). Monday is my last day, sayeth the hand therapy place. I am told that they have done all they can for me, and now it's up to me to exercise my left thumb and hand. Wednesday next the surgeon (who retires at the end of the month) will "graduate" me. Now I gotta do all the work. Phooey!
