TB? Is that short for TBN, Turner Broadcasting Network? As in Ted

Turner,
the guy that was married to Jane Fonda for six years? If so, then shame

on
you.

TB - telebision. It's a Mississippi thang.


Seriously? The TB thing, I mean?

Actually, Dennis the Menace used to say "telebision" and I'll be that's
where Cuhu picked it up.

A friend of mine once worked for a Cuban gentleman whose last name was
Vidal. Mr. Vidal spoke with a heavy Cuban accent. My friend overheard Mr.
Vidal on the phone with a customer one day. The customer was asking his
name and he said "Bidal". The customer must have asked him to spell it.
"Bidal", he said, "'B' as in 'BICTOR'"!

Okay...I suspected it was a local station, or something like that. I should
have gone with the most idiotic thing I could have thought of...and I'd have
still been wrong, since I can't throttle my brain that far back.

Ha! That's good!

An old buddy of mine was in the U.S.Navy.He once said there was a guy on
his Ship (USS Ticonderoga, www.dogpile.com USS Ticonderoga) who
always pronounced Valve as Balve.

Dennis the Menance always liked to watch Cowboy Bob,Western movies on
Telebision.Isn't there some sort of a little "air valve" isolator device
available somewhere that attatches to antennas and is suppose to be
effective for isolating/preventing lightning strikes from frying radios
and other kinds of electronic equipment.Seems to me I once saw an
advertisement about something like that in a magazine or a catalog years
ago.
