a careful clean-up...

I have been thinking alot about how much I use to love the game PICK-UP Sticks. If you don't recall the main point is to remove sticks from a pile without disturbing the remaining ones. To begin you grip the sticks in your hand and release then randomly so they create a tangled mess. Then you start to remove a single stick gently as to not let the others move. If a stick moves your turn is over immediately. If the removal is successful then you proceed to pick up more sticks. It is a game know to be good for physical and mental skill.
