So. This is not about war or oil or terrorism or The DPlan. It's not even about Bill Murray.
I just saw Groundhog's Day for the Nth time, and I saw something that reminded me that I was confused. I think. Anyway, my question is this. What the hell, exactly, is a bit? And how are two of them worth 25 cents? There's no way that "a bit" is 12.5 cents. Anyone know the etomology of this factoring fiasco?
This is the stupid shit that keeps me up nights.

Cheers, Wadsbone.
Posted by: e lo at March 30, 2003 02:56 PMThing is, it kinda is about the DPlan in that the band took their name from Ned Ryerson's (How the hell are ya?) offer to Phil Conners (Bill Murray) on a good "death and dismemberment plan." Don't ask how I know. I just do. One too many obscure zine interviews, I think.
Posted by: ade at May 20, 2003 08:03 PMI was wondering what the etomology of "sabor" would be? I know that in Spanish the word means flavor, but saborous is not an official word in the English Dictionary, but I was attempting to track the origins of the concept.
