What kind of a post can be made out of this word? We have had enough "mancy" threads. Best I can do is write it chi-romancy, and remark that though this is the machine age, love is still made by hand.

"Love is still made by hand"?? Only at the risk of insanity or growing hair on your palms, which makes chiromancy difficult. Hence the invention of Graham crackers.

And of course, there are now very effective mechanical pornotheses, (neologism from prosthesis). And the recently reported orgasmotron. But forget not the importance of a digital delectation of the G spot.

And of course "made by hand" vs. "machine age" merely emphasized that anything so marvelous should not be mass produced.

"made by hand"
In an interesting linguistic twist I have heard hand made contrasted with manufactured.

Howcome the CP activists have not outlawed "man-ufactured"? Perhaps "homofactured"?

And I fully expect a "stranger" with the handle Master Bates to post here at any minute! As an historical interpreter who does a 19th century schoolmaster dubbed Master Peacock it occurs to me that since all the male teachers were called Master followed by their last name, a fellow named Bates couldn't very well be a schoolmaster, could he?  And since we're in full stroke with hand words how did handle come to mean an alias? Could it have had something to do with short-wave "ham" radio operators?

Not sure, but it does prove that CBs were around a LONG time ago. After all, Jesus Christ is the Messiah's handle.
Just like Hondas are mentioned in the Bible. And, like many things in the Bible, they were a lot bigger than they are now. Jesus and his apostles were all in one Accord!

It's time for dinner, so you boys put away your toys now and come in from playtime. And be sure to wash your hands.
Land o' Goshen; go away for a couple of days and come back to a Circle Jerk. Who won, anyway?
