While wrapping holiday presents, have you found yourself saying, "If I had three hands, I could!" :-\

:laugh: :laugh: Yes! Since long before I heard Ennis say it. That's one situation where a third hand would definitely come in, er, handy.

I came here as soon as I could to report the triumphant use of a Brokieism in a work environment.
At one of my jobs I'm a copywriter for a medical-device manufacturer that makes, among other things, heart devices. So they help sponsor the American Heart Association's Heart Walk. The main headline for the walk is something like "Keep the Pace." I was assigned to write a subhead. So I submitted seven, three of which were chosen as finalist possibilities, including the one below. I'm really hoping it gets picked, because it will be my most public use of an almost-Brokieism ever.
KEEP THE PACE
Fast or slow, you're going in the right direction.
I might not have thought of it without my Brokie past. If any Brokies see the slogan, which statistically seems like a possibility, it will especially resonate with them.
