This saying comes from this nautical fact:
A slate tablet was kept near the helm on which the watch keeper would record the speeds, distances, headings and tacks during the watch. If there were no problems during the watch, the slate would be wiped clean so it would be ready for the new watch.

WHAT IS THE SAYING?
"START WITH A CLEAN SLATE"
You got that right, Trouthunter!

and your winnings are:
to go on that 250 mile trip and enjoy every time you want to!

Suppose we can terrify Eric with magic?

We can ask the Good Fairy to be bad for a minute ... wave her magic wand at him and say magically "POOF! and your little dog, too!"
