"pick splinters from my balls" Talk about a large mental image that produces. That hurts just thinking about it. I'm an ole hook myself but I think if given the choice of having small wooden shards of creasoked lumber shoved into my family jewels or walking up a ladder I think (as much as it would pain me) I would have to opt for the ladder (call me crazy)
The older I get the more I find myself asking questions like "is that bucketable?" LOL
