Behold the Power of the "Binkie"

Imagine as an adult having the magic power of a binkie.

With a fear of public speaking, you are required to address a large group of executives and your reputation depends on your delivery -- INSERT BINKIE -- Bring it on! Where's the mic?

A novice skier, you hop off the chair lifts and ski around the corner to be face-to-face with a double-black diamond ultra-steep slope with moguls as high as you newly-stretched out hips (that would be me). -- INSERT BINKIE -- Weeeee! See you at the bottom!

Charlie leverages his binkie in much the same way. Except its for baby activities. Almost anything is tolerable as long as the binkie is inserted between his lips. "Not sure about this bath? With my binkie, I am chillin' like a villain. Not sure I can handle spending 10 hours driving in a car across the Nevada desert? Insert binkie and I can man UP!"

  1. Ok, interesting subject. However, given you implied a serious pucker factor on the ski example, and suggested they are saying, "Weeeee!" while heading down hill, where exactly are you suggesting people insert the Binkie? (Oh no, did I say that out loud?)
