    I think we’re all in that same boat, right about now.

    I saw a quote in one of my web cartoons (Freefall). “I don’t have to save the world. I just need to put enough duct tape on it to keep it together until Monday morning.”

    You don’t need a bobby pin, Aunty. You need a Jesus clip.

    For the US English-impaired from The Urban Dictionary:

    A retaining ring sometimes called a spring clip, cerclip, c-clip or e-clip. Used to retain pins, gears, bearings, and other mechanical devices. Often referred to as a Jesus clip, because they inevitably fly over your shoulder leading to the exclamation “Jesus, where did it go?”Be careful with that Jesus clip, when it goes flying, only God knows where it comes back down.

    This reminds me of something we used to do in Junior High/High School. We would bend one leg of a bobby-pin around so that it was just held by the other leg. Then, if you made it right, when you pushed it against someone’s exposed skin, it would give them a little stinging snap… ☺

    Having a bobby pin with you used to be useful for all kind of things, like picking locks and such….. Today, keeping life together, seems much much harder-

    Nowadays I think bobby pins are used most often by Orthodox Jewish males to make sure their kipot (skull caps) stay in place. No, really!

    Probably should’ve use a safety pin.
