Um, err, somebody needs to spend a little time in the country. Kurt’s doing what kids who know that skipping is as much spinning as low level throwing have known for years. Maybe somebody should make an official game of what we used to do when skipping stones like this across the farmers pond in PA … opposing players, opposite sides of the pond, who can skip a stone at their opponent and have the skimming stone stop closest to the shore without hitting the opponent. Sheesh, is country life that novel? For the uninitiated, skipping like this is a expert selection of stone, side-arm throw, hooked first finger over edge of stone throw. Spin the stone with the leading edge just “up”. You can do it all day long, and we used to, we had time too, there’s little to do in the country when you aren’t working.

Yes, Country Hick, but he did so amazingly well (40 skips) that he got the world record for stone skipping.

See this site. Bizarre! It’s a competition offering the winner the right to drive a motorised sofa at over 100mph to beat Guinness Book of World Records current record for “fast furniture”.
