ORIGINAL: Missokyst So far I have not found a word which would kick it up a notch in terms of maturity. Perhaps I should have started a topic asking what people might call it instead. Any suggestions? quote:
ORIGINAL: Focus50 it's the one one most people know and there's a lack of something better or more accurate. As I ponder why this is in "Off Topic".... Focus. Ahem..... gather 'round, kids. Your Old Gran Pappy's about to tell a story. Then off to bed with y'all, okay? Tell us, Gran Pappy, tell us! Well, back when I used to do what's called "play" nowadays, we called it "work." <gasp!> Really, Gran Pappy? Really? Well, sure. Now your Old Gran Pappy wouldn't lie to you youngin's now would I? ------------------- YEP. One of the famous L.A. bars was called "the Tool Box." Sure, it was "Nice tool you got between your legs there, Mister." More to the point, one also said, "My tool box" where we now say my "play bag." How did that scene with Jim go? Oh, damn, we broke the work we had going. The words were more about performing or building a work of art. The concept was of the sub being clay, molded to the top's design, the top's plan. Many a time, I heard "Not pliable enough. He's got his mind made up what the work should look like." ----- E T C. ----- G'nite, kids. Now run off to bed befroe I swat you. <YES! Please swat ME, Gran Pappy, pleeeease?> Scoot!
