Ollie North - American Hero

[neoplacebo]

Oliver North, Lieutenant Colonel, USMC (retired) and his fearless loyal boss, General Richard Secord, were and are heroes. They both fill me with inspiration and goosebump awe just by a passing thought. Even Ollie's loyal secretary, Fawn, stuffed her pants for the greater good. Incredible.

Probably not many would get the joke anymore, but back in the day we referred to the office shredding machine as "Ollie." You'd put out documents in a bin for the office grunt to come get them to "ollie" them. Somebody would come along and pick up all the large bags of ollied paper, which itself was referred to as a "bag of ollie."

I myself would prefer to stuff them into Fawn's panties and shred them at leisure at some other time. But that's just me.

This is beyond my knowledge so that I have enough.

No sweat, zeenon. Ollie was just a jarhead who was involved in selling weapons to Iran that were later used to blow up other Marines in Beirut. He was later convicted to get off the hook and be a darling of the wingnut crowd.

I hadn't really paid much attention this time to the "newbies" signing on, until I tried to log in Tuesday and my anti-virus
plastered my screen with a "threat removed" notification.
It never occued to me that new sign-ons could bring a virus or phishing scheme in with them.

No wonder this forum is so lean; everyone but us are scammers!
