Yes, he could ski without fandangle

    That is nice. My first time to come across the word: fandangle.

    Yes, it's probably helpful to be good at math to prevent getting mangled or strangled when wrangling with a mountain...

    But the theorem he learned of Pythagoras
    He forgot it completely when asked in maths class
    He tried to remember in the depth of his blues
    Which one of three sides was the hypotenuse!
