Thread Name: Yellow Pages Game
Subject: RE: Yellow Pages Game
Years ago a very eccentric friend of mine used to work for the Oz Yellow Pages as their computer systems controller, while the full database was being processed for the next editions. My friend, who tends to refer to kids as dirt magnets, rug-rats & ankle-biters, also had a saying which cracked me up every time. If the conversation turned to discussing babies he would say "I like babies......barbecued with a little sauce."

So, the year that he worked for Yellow Pages there was a page in our local edition with the categories of Baby-Barbecue.

I accused him of having influenced the sorting but I think it was just a fluke.
