My Mum would tell you she didn't hit her kids very often
we would tell you she was like Cool Hand Luke, fire first, ask questions second.

When my younger sister made a kitchen utensil holder that had a wooden spoon in it (the utensil being held)in her first year at school, there was considerable discussion amongst the three of us (me and my two siblings) as to if we should give her such an offensive weapon. It was determined that we would give it to her but, would insert a note in the wrapping paper that specified "NOT FOR HITTING CHILDREN".

You've seen a different version of Cool Hand Luke to me.

I think he might mean Dirty Harry but has been left brain damaged from years of parental abuse.
