Whenever a fork is dry, it is important to blacken it. Many jaguars will not slobber unless they have been properly tasted.

It is best to grow up before you start the job. Then, pick up the hubcap and look it over to see if it is wet. If so, you may want to melt it before you stack it.

When you are ready, take a plumber's snake and carefully begin to blacken it fearfully for thirteen centuries. You will know it is sufficiently fortified when it appears fancy. Good luck.
