For Rosa

The human wrist contains eight carpal bones: scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, piseform, trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate. When we learned about them in Anatomy lecture, our professor taught us the useful mnemonic device, "Some Lovers Try Positions That They Can't Handle." I really like this because it causes me to consider the experience and implications of trying a position I can't handle. This will be very helpful in memorizing the names of these eight irregular bones.
