Mechanic Strapping Son

I was in Texas helping my dad and his mechanic fix his bulldozer.  The mechanic hand told his daughter that if his 13-year-old son ever called her stupid again to tell him and he told the son he'd be whipped if it happened.  Well, while we were working, the daughter came in and said he'd called her stupid again and he told her to tell the son to come into the barn where we were working.

After she left, he got a phone call, during which the son arrived.  He said to the caller "hang on; I have to something while it is still on my mind".  We all found out what was on his mind.  He grabbed a heavy leather strap about 3" wide and 24" long.  I was not stiff leather, but the more flexible kind that wraps around the ass and the skin to deliver a much more intense sting.

Then came the words "did you call your sister stupid?" to which the son said yes.  I would have loved to have seen the whipping, but could only hear it.  From the fist crack of the strap, this 13-year-old was screaming and crying.  We could tell that each swat was being delivered on target with full force.

It only lasted for about 25 swats, but everyone could tell the lesson had been learned.  That kid got one hell of good hard strap whipping; hearing it was very convincing.  And I'll bet he never called his sister stupid again!

His dad resumed his phone conversation afterwards.
