Hi again,

I'm in a better mood now, and I have a question, which
I will not thwack anyone for answering.  (I promise)
Thad isn't kidding-- We Kansas twisters are frozen all
the way down to our socks.  Maybe that's why I'm a
little cranky.

Actually, this is kind of response to an earlier
question, but brings up another issue.

Somebody asked how to get the stick out of the deep
hook twist.  I use powder on the stick before
inserting it. Baby cornstarch to be exact.  It slides
right out, "jes' like butta."  However, I've never
done this in public, since I don't know a of a good
way to store/dispense the powder.  

Any ideas?

Veronica
