It’s a good thing for Lion we didn’t play our football game yesterday. He would have had about 150 swats and who knows how many zaps for penalties. And to add insult to injury, our team lost. I know 150 swats doesn’t sound like a lot and, since it’s spread out over three hours, it probably isn’t but Lion would have felt them.
Tonight we’ll get back to our practice punishment swats. To start out, I’ll do fifteen swats, wait a little bit and do fifteen more. I’ll alternate until it seems like Lion can handle the swats closer together. The first time we did it, I spanked him 300 times. That may not seem like a lot until you consider that they weren’t the start-out-light-and-increase-as-we-go swats we were doing. These are full swats. It’s not as hard as I can hit but they have a decent amount of force. You saw the pictures of Lion’s butt afterwards. He was red and bruised.
I think I’ll still go for 300 swats tonight. I want too see what happens if I whomp him the same amount but give him less time to recover. Will he be redder and more bruised? Will he look the same? Can he even handle the same amount without moving? What if I up it next time to twenty swats with a short recovery time in between? Still 300 swats.
If I keep increasing the number of swats with little time between the bursts, how far will he make it before he moves? Maybe his tough hide will learn to take it. I remember hearing parents tell their kids they were going to tan their hide for some indiscretion. Will Lion’s hide get tanned and then be able to take 300 swats with no rest in between. I doubt it. But we can find out.
I may get well-defined muscles on my whomping arm. Luckily I’m fairly ambidextrous. 150 swats per cheek per arm. Good way to get in shape.
[Lion — A year or two ago, I mentioned to Mrs. Lion how Julie of strictjuliespanks routinely hit her husband over 200 times. In those days, we were lucky to get 10 hard swats before I headed for the hills. Mrs. Lion declared it impossible to hit so many times. Then, about a year ago, Mrs. Lion started doing “warmup” swats; more gentle swats leading up to hard ones. At that time Mrs. Lion said she understood how Julie could get such high numbers. Now, I am getting 300 hard swats every time and that certainly isn’t a limit. Funny, how things change.}
