HIT Like a cashew

[Gail Smith <ladyhunsdon@EARTHLINK.NET>]

Many asked for a hit about what I found.  The quote was actually "hung like a
cashew" which apparently referrs to the way a cashew grows.  A photograph on
one web site shows a large, fleshy fruit with a small, cashew hanging below
it.  The image suggests a man who is something less than well endowed.

Others asked for any literary connections that I found, and I did come up with
one.  The article is found at this link.  Be aware before going there that it
is rather explicit in its descriptions, and if you might be offended by such,
perhaps it is better that you not follow the link.

I really did not intend to start a long discussion of cashews or the related
images, but we did have a legitimate reference question, and my thanks to all
who helped us find the information.
