: : Damn......damn! I thought that Man was mighty Easy, if you get my drift! And I wondered about that "stage hand" in the background who kept on whistlin' "If I Only Had a Brain!" But come to think on it a bit...that there straw-stuffed Patented Hawkeye Crash Test Dummy IS lifesized and bears a striking resemblance to a certain loin-clothed hero. Ummmmm...how perzackly would one go about ORDERING a PHCTD or two from you, Doctor M? Mayhap we can make a deal!
: : MMMM
: Doc M will be more than happy to work out a deal with you,
: MMMM. Please consider that each of the DMPHCTDs are hand-
: crafted, with loving attention to every teensie detail.
: For a small additional fee, extra stuffing can be placed
: in the loinclothal area if you should desire it. Right
: now there's a three-week backlog -- Doctor Mary outsources
: all this stuff, and she only has two full-time gnomes
: working on spinning the straw. BettyGnome is a most
: amenable worker, but her companion-gnome can be a little
: testy. Plus there's an old fat guy who lives way north
: of here, and he keeps trying to cut in on my action and
: hire them away from me this time of year. I'll send the
: courier over with the new catalog of Doctor M's Special
: Millenial Product Line, and you can make your selection.
: Kiss! Kiss!

Spin straw? Spin straw you say? *chuckling*. What kinda cloth would be made from straw I wonder....assuming you could spin it??
I wanna see the wheel that spins that straw there Doc!! Methinks you have been to Bumppo's again, haven't you? Admit it!
Now flax, that's another matter!! Nothing like a nice linen nightshirt tightly woven and cool to the skin.
And what is this testy stuff??????? ME testy? Nah. Never. Do you call me testy merely because I am organizing for the AFGL (American Federation of Gnome Labor)? You call me testy just cause I let a little air out of the tires of your car parked in that supervisory reserved space? I'm testy just because you find it hard to cross a line of 25cm rowdy, chanting gnomes while being pelted with mouse droppings and rotten mushrooms?
