Little bit of twist ending, I didn't think of "broken picker" as a person but as an object - have a good day-

Such an ingenious turn of phrase, "broken picker!" it works really, really well in this epigram. I want to pinch its cheek, so to speak. Uncommon common sense wisdom here too, to boot. :) Gershon
