this will be his first solo performance in Southern California in over 6 years."

The History of the Middle - Finger THE LADY IN THE PICTURE DEMON-
The information contained in this column does not necessarily reflect the opinion of The Local News
STRATES THE CORRECT DIGIT!
Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the Eng-
lish, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers.
Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English long-
bow and therefore they would be incapable of fighting in the future.
This famous English longbow was made of the native English Yew tree, and the act
of drawing the longbow was known as "plucking the yew" (or "pluck yew").
Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began
mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, See,
we can still pluck yew!
Since 'pluck yew' is rather difficult to say, the difficult consonant cluster at the begin-
ning has gradually changed to a labiodentals fricative F', and thus the words often used
in conjunction with the one-finger-salute!
It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows used with the longbow that
the symbolic gesture is known as "giving the bird."
k
IT IS STILL AN APPROPRIATE SALUTE TO THE FRENCH TODAY!
And yew thought yew knew every plucking thing.
