Also, the Thorazine air-freshener.
The paddle used at my school had large holes drilled in the bidness end of it so as to make it displace a smaller volume of air when swung.
Sister Aloicious did not swing heavy wood, but she was a big believer in bat speed.
She taught physics, eh?
kinetic energy = mass * velocity**2
LOL Nice double entendre there, Robert ... much appreciated by a former Catholic school inmate.
The holes help displace the cushion of air between the butt and the prattle, fractions of an inch before it landed and there is more force in a more concentrated area.
She didn't use it hard enough. It's (1/2)mv**2
Two most used tools in the woodworking shop in HS: the planer, to plane down the fat part of the baseball bat, and the drill press, to drill holes in the resultant, two handed, paddle.
No self respecting coach would walk the hallways without one. My bony butt was once the recipient of 7 of those two handed "swats" and was multicolored for weeks.
You would probably go to jail for doing that today ... of course you would probably also go to jail for doing what I did to deserve them.
I recognize that guy... he was one of the Sr Directors at a previous job... outta control !! ;~)

Yeah, I'm thinking it was after he saw one of JT's "Buttercup" postings and had just learned what "eat recycled food and have a nice next life" really meant. :-)
Same treatment would probably work for the real troll as well.
