When I was a baby an unfortunate drop broke my left leg. They stuck a cast on it, which I promptly learned to wedge in my crib rails so that I could wriggle my leg out of it.

To this day my mom thinks I did that out of pure meanspiritedness. I suspect, however, that I itched.

**scritch scritch**

When I was castified (as opposed to castigated), I found that a well-used drumstick (roughed up by the rim of the snare) was really, really effective.
