Why should a cleverly turned phrase be cause for shame? I knew that a fid is a marlin style spike for splitting braided rope.

What have you read into my comment?

...FID...F-I-D...A fib is what your wife tells you when you ask where the last ice cream sandwich went...

Edit: Here's my mitt...The ends of the fingers were where I needed the fid...

(Interesting story as to where/how I got this...)
