Amos, not only are we nearing the 50,000th post, but we are also nearing the 1,000th page.

Have you ever heard infinity described as a hotel with all the rooms full but there is always a room available? Oh, sure, the quality of the rooms can vary from a set of rusted box springs, a thundermug, and a fly-specked single bulb to the most lavish suite you can imagine. But a room is always available.

So it is with BS. The quality can vary considerably, but BS goes on forever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever and ever, ad nauseam.

Just consider gnu's obsession with the New England Patriots. That's pure BS -- not very good BS, but the pure stuff, because anyone with a lick of reality knows that there is no such American football team as the New England Patriots. He calls them "Pats", of course, but he's talking about an imaginary football team. In point of fact, I should point out that there is no such game as "American football" either. No NFL, no goalposts, no Superbowel, no touchdowns, no field goals, nope, none of it. What you see on television or "on the field" is animation or animatronics/holography created to keep the unwashed masses entranced while THEY do THEIR unholy work.
