 "My Satin Doll" WOW sent this positive note, but another Musical Brief comes to mind. How about "Satin Sheets" although smooth and comforting----they are also slippery????!!!! enthusiast

Helen, from your earlier post re grey hairs, I'm wondering if your real name is Mother McCree? But you write, " every time i type the word brief--its seems weirder and weirderI have the same problem with the word "de-brief" - it conjures up all sorts of naughty pictures, such that I can scarce forbear to grin.

All right, we are showing our collective age folks, and our short memories are showing. Twas a mere three or four thousand posts ago when we noticed that our Anu has a greater chance of answering those with protuberances than those with dangly bits – ladies man that he is .

Dear FS: I think debriefing lawyers might be as cruel as defrocking your less deserving colleagues. Best I could think of at the moment. wwh

I still think this is one of the funniest things I've read.

That humorous combining form, 'de-'
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's a clever bit of logomachy making its way around the e-mail circuit.
If lawyers are disbarred and clergymen defrocked, doesn't it follow that electricians can be delighted, musicians denoted, cowboys deranged, models deposed and dry cleaners depressed? Laundry workers could decrease, eventually becoming depressed and depleted!
Even more, bedmakers will be debunked, baseball players will be debased, landscapers will be deflowered, bulldozer operators will be degraded, organ donors will be delivered, software engineers will be detested, the BVD company will be debriefed, and even musical composers will eventually decompose.
On a more positive note though, perhaps we can hope politicians will be devoted.

Whilst those who are no longer news-worthy will have been defamed, no doubt.
But the really burning question is:
If we are definite, is that a proof of the existence of eternity?
