>>Who is the speaker?
>>An undernourished alien who has come to earth looking for a job as a jockey?

No, it was somebody who had not yet created Adam and Eve, or anything living on earth that might respond to a "lets all" exhortation.

See, I'm as stubborn as you. ;-)

>>You'll be pleased to know that after having broken my toe in a silly fall last week I went to my toenail clipper and was happy to learn that he can actually do things that MD's are expected to do. Actually, he did a wonderful job and I'll stop haranguing him about toenail clipping.

Glad. Actually in my day we thought there wasn't a heck of a lot you could do for most sorts of broken toe. Had one myself. Hurts more than you'd expect from such a tiny little bone, right? ;-)
