It's Ash Wednesday, when all good Catholics dutilfy receive an ash
mark on their foreheads. Applying the ash is a tiresome process
carried by a priest using his finger.
Ash-Stick Finger is a simple device that replaces the finger with a
Prit-stick type device that comes preloaded with a supply
of
suitably
blessed and therefore purifed ash of perfect consistency. The ash
itself arrives in a variey of shades ranging from dark to light, to
ensure that even on darker skin, the lighest tone is still clearly
visible. The ash is also enfused with a gentle adhesive to ensure
good
skin adhesion endures throughout the entire day.
Ash-Stick Finger is modelled as a replica of a saintly human finger,
and periodically there is a competition to determine this year's
winner.
Would a rubber stamp work ?

Is this the same finger he uses for fiddling with little kids ? |

Tsk, [8th]. I'm in favour of religion, no matter what the variety. It gives the rest of us such an advantage. |

Shirley this is a precursor to wine-and-wafer-flavored gummy bears. [+] |

I hear that the catholic church these days is so short-staffed that they're having to ask choirboys to fiddle with themselves. |
|
| |
They take their fiddling very seriously at the Holy See, but nothing beats a session of plectrum plucking. |
|
| |
Well of course they're not so much plectrum pluckers as
plectrum plucker's sons … |

[whatrock], you have picked up the lingo in a very short
time...Yay. |

As for the idea +. Not Catholic but would enjoy having an ash
stick use somehow. I'll think of a way.. |
