From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
on the gripping hand   In the progression that starts "On the    one hand..." and continues "On the other hand..." mainstream English    may add "on the third hand..." even though most people don't have    three hands.   Among hackers, it is just as likely to be "on the    gripping hand".   This metaphor supplied the title of Larry Niven &    Jerry Pournelle's 1993 SF novel "The Gripping Hand" which involved a    species of hostile aliens with three arms (the same species, in    fact, referenced in {juggling eggs}).   As with {TANSTAAFL} and    {con}, this usage is a naturalized import from SF fandom.
