A child of the Southwest and of the 50s -- a woman who knew me well once said, 'Yeah, the 1850s.' Generally culturally conservative and distrustful of new and improved innovative change. Very seldom overtly serious, but many a truth is spoke in jest and all of my truths are. Worked my way through UT when I was up in my 30s. If I'd, by some horrible miscalculation ended up in Bryan, I would've worked my way through that school over there. Have worked all over in printing and publishing. I've held a bunch of jobs and quit all of them but one. I am a journeyman printer and followed the trade and heard its dying gasps as it was throttled by technological change. I had a sponsored blog on a newspaper but quit the job.
Yeh, that's the giggle, but it just seems funnier to me than most confusions like that. Ping must be onomatopoeia, but I suspect peen is something else, something I'm too shiftless to look up right now.

Could the difference between pinging and peening be the source of your ticklement? I think peening makes more of a bong or a bam than a ping.

Ball Ping hammer.....
Never mind, I won't say anything, other than there is a few jokes a lady comedian can come up with. (Makes me shudder to even think about!!!!)
