Ships’ anchor. Turns out it would actually be a spare, and therefore had a purpose that wasn’t as dumb as I had assumed.

I liked the metaphor, regardless of its truth. What was that anchor actually for in the picture?

Spare, believe it or not.

I thought the rest of the post made sense, but having the central part of my metaphor so competely destroyed made it untenable. So, I’ll try again later.

Oh, I hate that! The post and pic showed in my reader so what was the issue? Was it that the anchor was somehow perfectly accessible?

My policy when I get something terribly terribly wrong is to leave the post up, let my readers tell me what an idiot I am, and have several “beers of shame.”
