Now, if Richard Pryor got switched I bet he would have had something to say about it LOL. I can't imagine Richard Pryor's grandmother asking him to select his own switch stick LOL.

Seemed to be a woman thing, tho. Dad, grandfather, friends' fathers all whipped off the belt and came after us. Didn't need that often either!A little corporal punishment will make you fly right for a while.

I'm thinkin we should take a poll (no pun intended) about how many females used the switch and how many men used the belt, deffinitely a gender thang herea.

No, I don't he's just got his facts all wrong pertaining to the artwork and the fact that all those sacred places are now being trampled to death by tourists and there is no money being donated to the holy sites to make repairs.

Not just a southern thing. It was used, and called the same in South Africa when I was a lad too.

My father's idea of a switch had the name "Spaulding" branded onto it.
