I knew it was a bit risqué fer those not up on their ism's Mr. K, but someday you'll be watching reruns of Jon Stewart or C-Span and catch the punch line. wink.gif

But there's no tie-in between levees and Guess.

Britches (breeches). wink.gif I thought streaming would flow ambiguously as well? It's hard tellin not knowin.

Kris, some project I've worked on required retinal scans but even they would mess up at times. On one occation, arriving at White Sands on my bike, it was sand in my eye that confused the scanner and restricted my passage into the facility.

With this SS# scam and other so called security breeches, (Fort Detrick) I suspect they're by design.

SB, at this distance, it's difficult to discern whether you've got your tongue firmly planted in your cheek, or you're going too fast to proofread.

At the 'risque' of telling you what you already know, I think 'exposure' is the word you meant to use, and FYI, risqué = too 'blue' to say to yer momma, whereas 'risky' = taking a chance.

 - KB, who vaguely knows who Jon Stewart is, but hasn't watched broadcast TeeVee in many years...

PS - Sarcasm and witty wordplays don't usually travel well 'in print'.

Ya gotta applaud those bunnies for sacrificing their hearing just so some guy in Cupertino can have better TV reception.

I shouldn't have to, if it's well-written in the first place.

mr. K it's a pun and if you don't watch TV then you probably haven't seen the "the speech", or the people calling levees -Levi's, breeches  -britches, or how delighted Juan Happycamper is with his new identity.

I see Risqué as "likely to attract controversy".
Often used when speaking about sex, sometimes use when speaking about politics, your dictionary may translate the word into an entirely different meaning.

Uh, didn't you misspell that?
Shouldn't it be nook-you-ler?

What are you trying to say here? Nooky Yodeler?

I was attempting to make the point that so many in the US Government [including the President] pronounce the word "nuclear" as if it was spelled 'nook-you-ler', and since this was the US Government being mentioned along w/ nuclear, maybe we should change the word for consistency.

As do I.  And it did, didn't it?

Just kidding, thus the use of wink2.gif (which you didn't include in your quote)

The smilies are a good way to convey intent in a written dialog, don't you think?
