A Middle Finger

Wonder why it's the middle finger A middle finger seems so offensive to me Think it should have been named Butch Or Milos or perhaps Tony There's no mistaking middle finger though Wouldn't be surprised if you wore a dress Talk about a feminine name No surprise if you carried a purse Okay maybe I'm being a bit silly Names don't dictate things these days But Margaret doesn't sound macho either What bout a plain middle finger what'd ya say

(LOL) Ah, Jack, you brain is working overtime. Yes, I do carry a leather pouch. Deb gave it to me when the doctor said part of my back problem was caused by putting stuff in my hip pocket. Now, I carry everything I need in my handy male bag. Some guys laugh; let 'em. My back feels better.

Yes, Jack. They strike the letters A, Q, Z and period, semi-colon on the keyboard. Very useful little digit!

Is that one of the stipulations? Wasn't aware of that one! Do pinky fingers have any use other than when you're counting?
