Ah yes, learning to curve the fingers in just the right way so the teacher wouldn't smack our hands w/the ruler. Same w/penmanship in grade school. If I held my pen or pencil the way we were expected to, you couldn't read my writing. If I held it my own way, I had beautiful penmanship. That didn't matter, though. Had to do it their way or you'd have to hold out your hands and get them smacked w/the ruler across the knuckles.
