Natter 25: Two bits and they're both naughty.
Hee hee. This reminds me of a story. At Rice, someone put on an original show called Pre-Med: The Musical. It was rough around the edges, and thusly earned only a two-star review.
The following week, they posted fliers of a voluptuous, topless woman with stars covering her nipples. The caption: "We may only have two stars, but we know how to use them."
How about -
Natter 25: Letters and a Redneck
<pedant>
Oh, since I'm in here...I might be the only person who's bugged by this kind of thing, but in the new Minearverse title the "is" should be a capitalized "Is," due to its being the verb, despite its shortness.
I'd close the pedant tag, but we all know how futile that is.
Damn. I wanted to come in and be all geeky about 5x5, but Cindy beat me to it.
the "is" should be a capitalized "Is,"
So it is written. So it shall be done.
Shave and a haircut, two bits. Who ya gonna marry? Tom Mix!
My mother sang: "Shave and a haircut, two bits. Who's your barber? Tom Mix!"
The jingle was also a plot point in Roger Rabbit.
I was thinking of "Shave and a Haircut" as a Natter 25 title before P-C posted it, so if you want to use it but don't want to give him credit for two titles in a row, you can give the credit to me.
Ha! P-C, you're totally not the only person bugged by that sort of thing. And my error, I should have noticed it. Apologies.
Natter 25: Shave and a haircut - show nape!
I'm not sure I can bear the Shave and a Haircut earworm through an entire thread.
