I thought "nugatory" was about these folks

would that be a "noogietorium" ken?

Indeed.

More like the old song, Ken:

"Nouga-cha-ka, nouga-cha-ka

I can't stand this Bingley

Sittin' in sight of me

BLECH! You just don't realize

What it does to me..."

And, for Diptera's sake and because it's LENT, I did NOT link to the amazing David Hasselhoff video. See? I'm sensitive and respect other cultures.

You really are an inspiration Sis. A shining example in these dark times.

"Dark" being the operative word.

I live to serve.

You have my thanks for avoiding that particular temptation, Ms. Sister. 'Course I shoulda known that Hasselhoff did a cover - hopefully in German, just for the comedy value.
