You know, I know what all those words mean individually … and some of them even sort of vaguely make sense in combination with one or two other words surrounding them. But overall, this just feels like word salad to me.

So what can we do with word salad? Why, we can anagram it, of course!

Drunkard of trollopy boob champion. Befuddle a corpulent ransacker. Shack up with clever obscurant. Joy! I am a guardian prostitute.

Much better.

Thanks, bianchisound!

    Dirty numb angel boy
    In the doorway boy
    Reminds me a bit of this:

    She was a lipstick boy
    She was a beautiful boy
    And tears boy
    And all in your inner space boy
    He had hand girls boy
    And steel boy
    He had chemicals boy
    I’ve grown so close to you boy
    And you just groan boy
    She said come over come over
    She smiled at you boy

      I think, in the sense of purely speculating having been involved in the trade/swap/ebay world a while, that “nj not us us” ought be read

      That the BC Rich guitar, while labeled NJ, was not made in the US

      And, that The Peavey is the “US Patriot” model, which is USA made.

          Doors and Replies have been taking the long weekend off all day for me. At least on the desktop. This tablet (knock wood [does so]) seems resistant so far.

          Ah, “custom doors”–why no one bothers to mention “May require additional fitting” is beyond me. Which would often confuse potential customers, as I’d bring almost every thing to build a door from scratch, which would be reflected in the price. If they then asked Handi-Sparqi, that worthy would quote some simple rpice like $30-50, but then need 2 days to bring every thing to finish the job.

          Experience ought to be budgeted for–but, it’s not, sad to say.

    Just need to make a brief return to yesterday’s topic. Mrs. Grampdaddy was reading the ‘Round-up’ and commented that she had an idea for a best seller in Milwaukee (pay attention Taco). For those unfamiliar with Brewers baseball, they have a sausage race between innings during the game. Mrs. G. suggested that Sparky make ‘Penis Italian Sausage’, ‘Penis Kielbasa’, ‘Penis Bratwurst’, and ‘Penis Hotdog’ costumes.

    Think of the fun! Collect the entire set! Have friends over and have a race to see who – umm – finishes first!

          Miss Christina:

          Were these two children involved in the debacle yesterday? If so, it may be necessary to discuss their involvement with each other, the intensity of their attachment to their instruments, and the costumes they wish to model. I must say I was greatly disturbed by the images of the clarinet performing that activity on the baritone. Those images kept me up all night fondling my beads.

          My initial thought is to assign them 10 Holy Mackerels, a decade as a Rotarian, and two FTW’s. Your thoughts about the aptness of this discipline would be greatly appreciated. I may try to do some in-depth consultation with the Drum Captain concerning their behavior.

    Since we rather have a meme of no meme at all today, I will also maunder a bit.

    At the football game last night, the SFA marching band show seemed an excellent representation of Brownian motion. People i nthe flag corps would randomly not have flags, others would go and stand by the sidelines. Still others would carry a single flag or baton around the formation and hand this off to another member, who would go the rest of the way, to then drop the itme on the other sideline.
    Then, various portions of the band would go and stand out of the formation, then rejoin it. With the dozen or so twirlers, batons sparkling above the formation, the image was rather complete. Musical choice was “Best of Earth, Wind, & Fire”; which I only know because it was announced.

    Was unique.

    Mind you, our crowd is very much used to our Band, 100% military, 6-to-5 marching, plays marching music for brass bands sort of half-time performances, and we were not disapointed.

    Sunday Round-up, 09/05/10

    YSaC, Vol. 780: In bad cushion.

    The YSaC cafeteria served up some word salad, and out of nowhere, Bickerdyke quoted Underworld songs. ToBScholarly and Silva Noir approved and adored. A different corey explained exactly what the ad was all about, without tags. Our Llama-nun, may bees be ever upon her, pointed out the linguistic issues. Astrognash quoted the Beaver’s mom, when she was high, Laurelhach posed as a grammarian, and Lara loved her some Airplane. HamCan translated the ad into Ig-pay Atin-Lay. That helped a lot. Corey came back to compliment the Llama-nun’s anagrams, Laurel wanted to know how many tags it would take for corey to implode the universe. Lara had to go stoke a rug. Corey reiterated that he is tagless. Christina declared corey to be lower case, and the universe was safe once more. Smedley reminded corey of the proper obeesance for the Llama-nun. Silva Noir revealed she is a punctual capitalist.

    NotMyName proposed that BC Rich Warlock was a character for sale on WoW. Alex and Addicted Reader argued philosophy but Moira went digital. Cap’n Mac led us back to unreality. So alex said he (he?) knew there would be corey all over today.

    ToBScholarly wondered if rich warlocks are required to have full stacks, but Laurel explained the warlock was rich BECAUSE he could create full stacks. Lara expected the warlock to be from Jersey, and have cast an ugly tan spell on Snookie. Grampdaddy was glad to see Lara after so long.

    CJ was in a mood to dance, Laurel compared the ad to a rap song, eliciting approving comments from Christina and Lara. Then Lara liked the idea of a guardian prostitute, but wondered what the duties would be. Christina improved on Pretty Woman and Moira threw doors at her. Christina needed the doors. Lara got some anagrams of her own, but it didn’t look pretty. The Llama-nun, eternally worthy of bees, said one had to know the right place to get anagrams. Astro and Laurel chimed in. TBS didn’t want to give Sparky that much credit.

    Drum Captain placed an order, Grampdaddy didn’t see the sense, and wanted to ask her husband about it. Astro suggested a costume for Chthulhu. Christina went for comfort, Grampdaddy had gender ignorance, and DC went with costume, right. Grampdaddy wanted more input. Christina figured it out, and Windrose tried to play innocent. Smedley waggled his eyebrows, ala Groucho.

    Bianchi Sound, who submitted the day’s post, came in to say sorry he missed yesterday’s over the line tournament. Christina gave him a hard time, Grampdaddy liked it both ways, and Bianchi stated he knew what he was saying. Arched Eyebrows smirked about hitting balls, and DC noticed the wood. DC mentioned the subject of yesterday’s ad, followed by condiments from Hammy, Christina, Astro, Hammy, Astro, Hammy, Bianchi, Hammy, sarajean, Grampdaddy, Astro, Laurel, Hammy, Christina, and Hammy. Grampdaddy had to stop due to squicking, Hammy went with Miracle Whip.

    Hammy then brought out the rhino guardian and the peavey warlock. Camille ordered rhinos for everyone. Christina was glad her commute would be normal. DC ordered a hippo instead of a rhino. Silva Noir had a saddle for her rhino, which reminded Camille to mount the bad boy. Kae saw that play.

    Christina went to confession, then made it worse by bickering with Astro over fashions and hair styles. Bicker bicker bicker. Silva brought back neon, Christina stocked up on odd colors in Not.A.Lion prints. Ratwoman reported a man wearing a bright pink t-shirt. Kae used skinny jeans as birth control, and Cap’n gave the Texas fashion report.

    Laurel posted something in her own, personal, word salad style, and got a slap from Astro. Laurel tried to explain away the error, but Christina pointed out there were, in fact, two or more errors. Laurel pleaded quadratic equation, and Astro burst into song. Laurel added a chorus or two.

    Grampdaddy shared his sausage with Mrs. Grampdaddy, and she had a great idea. But Hammy has to switch to mustard. Astro excused himself to go unswallow for dramatic effect. The two shared hotophones. Grampdaddy recommended bees for the hives.

    Laurel regretted Grampdaddy’s return to yesterday’s subject, and used that as an excuse to join Astro. Christina quickly stepped in, and laid down the law for underage snarkers. Laurel revealed her relief, but Astro wanted a guardian prostitute. Christina sent them both to Sr. Margaret Michael, in spite of Astro’s commitment to band practice. Bubotuber roots were discussed. Sister MM showed up, and was eager to start the discipline. She thought DC should help, through in-depth consultation. Astro thinks the sister is a fraud. And a man. Nuntheless, Christina tattled on the children.

    Having considered mustard, Hammy thought about Grey Poupon. Grampdaddy quoted Bill the Cat. Manda wanted a Greek, and Windrose was surprised. Hammy was still having a good think. Manda presented her family tree, and Grampdaddy claimed her as his own. Windrose pointed out Hammy’s think, but he claimed it was the French spelling that Bridgete had learned him.

    Sarajean forced her mother to a shooting match with hashbrowns. I think. Eclectic Blue giggled at Joy the Guardian Prostitute. Grampdaddy wanted to dress and arm the Guardian. Hammy had a different outfit for her. Astro was reminded of Santa, and Grampdaddy liked it.

    Mel needed a rack mount rhino to guard the server from the corpulent ransacker. Hammy had an entry in the CMA. Silva thought a roc and a wizard were excessive, unless the rhino was to feed the roc. DC posted a link for Tennant fans, while Windrose announced the Round-up thread in the forums was up to date. Christina topped that with a YSaC Dictionary Wiki, and Astro jumped ahead with a Encyclopedia Wiki. Christina and Astro worked out the details.

    Litarider linked rich warlock nj to the Mafia. Astro tried to find Al Sharpton on Google via YSaC. The Llama-nun, more bees, rebuked the erroneous data, and Smedley figured out about clicking ads and revenue to our favorite site. Windrose helped.

    Ratwoman had gold window controls. Kae suspected a lack of drugs. Astro went to the movies, with suggestions from Lurker, Windrose, otter, Jen, Windrose again, Sarajean, Christina, Hammy, and Moira. Cap’n recapped a marching band’s Brownian motions. AR pulled an EB, which Jen guessed had nothing to do with giving birth.

    One more chore, and then my work here is done. 8)

      Brilliant as usual, Windrose! One minor correction though, Bridgete has the wiki, not me. Cap’n made the same mistake the other night so I’m going to switch to another avatar tomorrow.

      Sweet! Do I have enough punches for a Cap’n to English secret decoder ring? The one I’m using now just keeps reminding me to drink my Ovaltine.

      Since nobody noticed, I’ll point out that the title is an anagram of Bianchi Sound.

        I had been wondering to what the title referred, but since I often don’t get the references here, I assumed it was just me.
