...wives’ tales debunked (don’t worry, you can keep cracking your knuckles; if laureate Donald L. Unger didn’t get arthritis after 60 years of constant knuckle cracking, you won’t be getting it anytime soon either).  Between the man??excuse me, human spotlight—wearing only silver body paint, sneakers, and a Speedo, not to mention the ongoing poker game, the mini-opera, and the constant multilingual interruptions, FM was not sure what to make of the corybantic stage.
