Hum. The things one learns. But that seems only marginally
more plausible than the other title.

Reminds me of the joke:

There's this club of tough guys up in Nome, and in order
to become a member, one has to drink a quart of whiskey,
wrestle a polar bear, and make love to Nellie, the local lady
of easy virtue. So some guy shows up, and the terms are laid
out, and he says no problem, and everyone is sort of laughing,
because he doesn't look like much. But he downs the quart of
booze no problem and is led to a door for his next task. He
goes into the room, and people are thinking, he's a goner for
sure, but as it turns out, there's a huge ruckus, and the
door opens, and the guy staggers out - he's cut up and bitten,
and his clothes are in tatters - and he says, okay, where's
this broad I'm supposed to fight?
