Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Mickey191 Date: 07 Dec 03 - 04:32 PM This illustrates a Question mark. It usually follows a question. Today Brucie has forgotten what he wanted to ask. He may be scratching his head right now --while we ponder. |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Cluin Date: 07 Dec 03 - 04:38 PM According to Douglas Adams, brucie, the answer is 42. |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Jeri Date: 07 Dec 03 - 04:42 PM BS = BullShit. It used to be used (by consensus) for non-music discussion. Now, I get the impression it's for non-music discussion that's somewhat frivolus. If you select "BS/non-music" when you start a thread, and title it appropriately, there isn't a need to type "BS:" in, in my opinion. |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Little Hawk Date: 07 Dec 03 - 06:17 PM It's the print of George Washington's right ear. This is how you identified yourself in the War of Independence, because they had not yet mastered fingerprinting, genetic coding, or anal implants that send radio signals. You simply pressed the side of your head against an ink blotter and then pressed your ear against a pad of paper. George Washington had rather big ears, which is why he grew that long hair. Most people are quite unaware that his right ear was normally inkstained. The British used red ink, the American Revolutionaries used blue. - LH |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Ebbie Date: 07 Dec 03 - 08:40 PM This reminds me of a cocktail party where one cruises past snippets of conversation. (I just saw brucie's broadcast of his plans. I'm glad that I personally didn't fall into his trap. I wouldn't think of writing on a nonspecified subject.) |

Reporter sent Gary Cooper's agent a telegram asking "How old Gary Cooper?" Cooper was either there...or heard about it, and had the reply sent.."Old Gary Cooper fine, how you?" (he was once asked if it was true he didn't give long interviews...he replied "Yep.") *end pedant alert* ok, back to all the free association |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Ebbie Date: 08 Dec 03 - 08:45 PM I found this on Google: A reporter in search of information once wired Grant's agent: "HOW OLD CARY GRANT?" Grant himself wired back "OLD CARY GRANT FINE. HOW YOU? So, Mr. Red, I guess you are right. Bill D, I must admit that when I don't remember the details I often change a story to reflect the germane parts. In this case, I didn't even remember that it was a reporter! |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Bill D Date: 08 Dec 03 - 10:59 PM awww..DURN...yes...Cary Grant! **I** found it in a search in newsgroups as Gary Cooper. I knew it was not Jimmy Stewart or Burt Lancaster, and believed the first one I found...and then asked my wife who agreed about Cooper...*sigh*....but the minute I saw Cary Grant, I knew... So easy to get it wrong mea culpa...(well, at least I didn't try to slip in Bela Lugosi! *grin*) |

Subject: RE: BS: ? From: Bee-dubya-ell Date: 08 Dec 03 - 11:46 PM BS:? It has been determined over on the MOAB that The Holy Trinity of BS consists of Bill Shatner, the Father of BS, Barbara Streisand, the Mother of BS, and Britney Spears, the Child of BS. The recognition of this Divine Trinity may well be the first step in establishing BS as an organized religion. |
