Cuddling Your Crochet Hook

Do you use your hooks for activities other than crocheting? I've found a couple of alternative uses for them, plus imagined a few more possibilities. The most frequent use is to scratch my back! Tunisian hooks are the best for this because they are longer. Hey, don't knock it. It works!
I've also fished an earring out of my bathroom sink drain with a hook. Hmm-mm...speaking of fishing...wonder if it could be used to catch fish! What do you think? Then, of course, reaching under the couch to snag that tiney spool of thread, requires a hook - or a cat, but hooks' upkeep is easier than the Meower's, tho you can't cuddle a hook- no matter what I can't imagine cuddling a crochet hook!! We could also use a thinner hook to clean out the dust between the keys on our keyboard.
If you ride the CTA buses or trains, and crochet as you go, the hook might just serve as a protective device. Once a guy sitting next to me on a crowded train got a bit cozy with his leg pressing against mine -- a carefully placed hook would have quickly alleviated that uncomfortable position -- I could have crocheted him....u get the picture. If you don't, then get a life!!! Pul-ease!
If you have any more ideas for using crochet hooks, please email your ideas to me. To Be continued....
