By the way, y'all, my friend and I have started a little inside joke that we find absolutely hilarious--I know this board will appreciate it.

Every time one of us says or does something the slightest bit off-color, rude, or unpleasant, the other briefly sings the BB theme and holds up a palm in front of his face--a la the FOTH.

The joke is way funnier if you imagine your OWN front door every time you do it. A brilliant metaphor for the things better left unsaid!

Imagine the TV show version of your own life--every time someone does something ooky (husband swears, kids fight, the dog squats on the carpet), BOOM, cut in your mind to a picture of your front door at that very second, with the BB muzak "doo, doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo..." playing.

Well, I laughed. Proof, I guess, that I'm an addict. If you laugh, you probably are, too.

I LOVE IT!!! I read this thread this morning and didn't share this funny little idea with my husband. A little later in the day we were in the kitchen and he was getting a little to grumpy with me...so I did it....ROFL....it was great. So funny...we had a good laugh...you're a crack up Bastable...it's nice having you around the boards.
