the idea is to have a flesh colored, super absorbant finger cot type device that would be employed before hanging out with your manly friends while watching telly.

with an artificial fingernail, and a few beers in everyone, no-one will ever know it's there.

upon seeing that heart wrenching show or commercial and feeling that lump in your throat, it's quickly held to the corner of an eye for a second, sucking up all the excess moisture, but not long enough to dessicate your eyeball, saving your grace and a lifetime of ribbing about your sensitivity.

       [po] - a 'hanky' is a white flag signalling to all a total surrender of machismo. Please, call it a 'bandana'.

       not here - a hanky is a cotton or paper square that one blows one's nose upon...

       Alternatively: Mini radiant heaters hidden in the frames of your glasses - a quick burst of heat dries up any unmanly moisture.
