Hunt and Peck

Name of the innovative team that came up with the qwerty keyboard layout to slow down typists to prevent old mechanical typewriters from jamming.

Masters at inventing ways to slow people down, Hunt went on to inventing a catsup that pours more slowly and Peck went on to inventing a method of eating that made it take four times as long to eat your meal.

Nobody will IM with me because I hunt and peck.

Hercules

Roman name for the Greek god Heracles. The word hero is derived from Hercules, even though all Hercules seemed to do was kill people who pissed him off.

Some people think Hercules was a great lover of women, but he was bi, and had more male lovers than he had women. That's why other gods like Thor were afraid to be around him.

Sam Elliot to Mel Gibson in "We Were Soldiers": Hercules was a pussy, sir. Oh wait a minute... that was Custer...

Amish

Owners of most of the rendering plants used to make pet food. They are all multi-millionaires, but you wouldn't know it to look at them.

Samuel Stolfutz made over 80 million last year in a deal with Purina. Man... I wish I was Amish!

Swing Out Sister

British band featuring the vocals of Corrine Drewery. Never does the same music genre twice - they like to experiment. Very popular in Japan. Twice the size of average bands which sometimes prevents them from touring. Generally described as Chantese Jazz.

Popular songs:

Now You're Not Here (#1 International Hit)
Breakout
Twilight World

Some Enya fanboy: SOS is ok, but their sound is so synthesized. I like Enya better because she's got such a natural sound.

Swing Out Sister fanboy: You DO know that Enya is 100% synthesized, right? I mean even her vocals are enhanced by computer. She can't even tour because her sound is impossible to create outside of the music studio. On the other hand, SOS has a 10-peice band with all real instruments with one of the best keyboardists in the world.

Boot Camp

A reality show similar to Survivor that was cancelled when people found out that it was rigged.

They don't even show re-runs of Boot Camp.

Fantabulous

Sort of like "fabulous" but much more fabulous than the word "fabulous" can convey. Like supercalifragilisticexpialidocius but shorter and easier to spell.

While on a free trip to Italy I won a free titanium frame bicycle and the customs agent let me bring it on the plane for free. What a Fantabulous trip!
