A punching bag. The guy was pounding on a punching bag. That realization took about a nanosecond to register in her brain before the real important information came to the forefront: LoriSue, God bless her slutty little soul, had been absolutely correct. He was male-stripper material, and he’d been thoughtful enough to strip to a pair of athletic shorts on his very first night in the neighborhood. .Susan Donovan
About This Quote
Punching bags used to be popular in the 18th and 19th centuries. Paddies (a type of Irish street fighter) would use punching bags to train their muscles and to perfect their fighting techniques. Punching bags were also used in the professional boxing ring, although they were rarely used by boxers because they were too heavy and awkward. The punching bag was a common tool for training children in martial arts or other combat sports. Because of its ease of use, the punching bag was often used as a form of entertainment for children’s birthday parties.
