Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnndddddddddddddddddd they're off.

We certainly need to do all we can to promote BS, but only BS of quality. Therefore and whereas, I propose that MOAB sponsor an award, which shall hereafter be known as "The Mother Of All BS Award For Outstanding BS During A Predefined Temporal Period" (or "The Mammy" for short), for the best BS laid on in the Mudcate Cafe during a predefined temporal period.

This award, the design of which is left up to Bee-Dubya-Ell (who is experienced with cracked pots), will be presented at a virtual session which will be called "The Mammy Jam." Those participating will be called "The Mammy Jammers" and the winner will be addressed as "Mommy" until the award for the next predefined temporal period is awarded.

Politics, being by definitions poor quality BS, is ineligible for a Mammy because res ipsos loquitur. Likewise lawyer stuff is ineligible for the same reason.

This will be a virtual award, so that your home, domicile, box, cell, cave, shack, bothy, castle, pied-a-terre, cabin, palace, apartment, flat, or other dwelling place will not be cluttered up with dust-catching brick-a-brack.

A monetary award will also be included, if it can be raised. This will be in euros, rupees, yuan, or some other currency that's worth something.
