My ma was alive during quint mania. In the early ‘80s I was in a different city than she was. I told her one of the Dionne quintuplets lived three doors down from me. She believed it, I busted a gut.

In 1985 she lived in Cleveland, Ohio. I asked her if she’d heard that former President Richard Nixon had opened a big-and-tall men’s clothier in Syracuse, NY. She said she had not. Gut re-busted.

Smack the back of a little boy’s hand with a wooden spoon, will she? Ha!

Exploited is one word I’d use, but it would be the only one that I can use.
