    Quick! When I say “thong”, what’s the first picture that comes into your head? I’m betting it’s not a flip-flop.

    I’m old enough that thongs go on the feet.

    When I was a kid, I wore thongs to the beach all the time.

    When I was a li’l squirt - ‘bout 500 yrs ago - we called them “go-aheads”.

    Go figure…..

    Reminds me of the old Japanese automaker joke where all the bigwigs were at a meeting w/their Creative Consultant, & ordered him to come up w/a name BY TOMORROW for their newly-designed small car. He jumped up & said: “Dat Soon???”

    Wow, that IS an old one - they don’t even MAKE ‘em anymore…..
