You all probably recall my previous post pertaining to the 3rd Volume of 100 Bullets: Hang Up on the Hang Low. It was amazingly one of my most commented on posts that I’ve done since starting this blog almost three years ago. Unfortunately, I didn’t really get the answer I was hoping for when I decided to post my troubles about trying to figure out this riddle. Or did I…?
One of the last comments I received (by a yet to be determined anonymous poster) jokingly referred to the fact that “hang low” was slang for a penis. I naturally brushed it off at first as just a funny comment. A couple days later I actually came across the term hang low in a noir novel, Pop. 1280. Then, as I was talking with Sara C. last night, she jokingly threw out that another slang term for penis is “the THIRD leg”! Could that possibly be the #3 connection? I don’t know. I like the idea of it, and yet in the back of my mind I’m saying, “no, that can’t be it.”
Thoughts?
