Laura sent me a txt yesterday and said she discovered in her sociology class that a man with a toothpick in his mouth is 10% more attractive. That is why Misty wanted to be my wife, no doubt.
I knew there was a good reason for my toothpick habit. It is a habit I have had for as long as I can remember. My grandfather Collins always had one, my dad always had one and I always seem to have one. If you haven’t noticed the caricature drawing of me here on the blog has a toothpick behind the ear. That is where I often carry spares.
I like round ones especially the ones from Cracker Barrel, they don’t splinter as bad as others. I don’t like flat toothpicks, flavored toothpicks or plastic toothpicks.
Many people have given me gifts of toothpick holders through the years. I have toothpick holders to carry in my pocket and toothpick dispensers.
It is just a habit, I don’t know why but you will seldom find me without a toothpick.
