OK, you got a point, Bill -- bleep the one about the messcooks -- how about FIGMO? As a detailer, you have to have heard that one.
Maybe my all-time personal favorite - "You can make the damn thing idiot-proof but you can't make it sailor-proof!"
As a civilian, feel free to substitute whatever applies for "sailor"  |

there was some ditty whose exact wording escapes me but sounded something like:
scream and shout, scream and shout, wave your arms and flail about.
And on another subject, do any of you find yourselves tearing down the boxes your beer comes in or other similar packages into sheets so they don't take up so much space in the garbage cans? |
