The Lasso of Truth prevents the telling of LIES. Lariats normally use a Honda knot.

It's easier to LOSE a Low Earth Orbiting Satellite due to space weather than a satellite in a higher orbit.

Oh, dear creator, did you imagine that your invention would LAST for 29 months?

From humble beginnings, and Malc's lust for immortality, the 'four letter word game' lives on!

David, we MUST be addicted to the thread.
And to think that we have spent so much time at EMD, even though our post counts don't register when we post in any Off-Topic threads such as this!

We can count ourselves among the most fortunate of men. We would indeed be much saddened if we visited here and had to leave without posting.

And yes, we are addicted

Don't POUT -- even a Rock Man isn't pointless.

POUR on the scorn, I think we can take it!

The Point - That brings to memory a line in it:

"You been goofin' with the bees?"

Can't remember what it meant though . . .

To refresh YOUR memory:
The phrase, "You been goofin' with the bees?" was in the first 30 seconds of my last link. The previous section of the movie has the actual bees.

When they looked up, there was a giant swarm of bees headed straight for them. So to seek cover, they jumped inside a hollow log. But when the bees attacked, the log was jarred loose, and it tumbled down a steep hill, and it careened and crashed finally into the base of the most unusual rock pile--in fact, the Rock Man. And the Rock Man said, "Say, what's happening with you boys. You look like you pretty shook up. You been goofin' with the bees?"

No I didn't, I kind of feel proud but also guilty, as at least FOUR of you seem to be badly addicted
