Actually Mac, it's an old Steve Allen joke. No, it's not in common use anywhere really, just to some diehard Steverino fans.

But ya' know.....that's EXACTLY what the joke was about. He once turned to a guest and blurted, "How's your bird?" and bird became a synonym in everybody's mind so he ran with it and said that you could turn any word into a dirty word and suggested "Bruce." So........

How's your Bruce?
