core monster" and "unstoppable tornado".

You realize of course that by constantly mentioning these cliches, that they are going to become ingrained in people's everyday speech and eventually wind up in the dictionary... just like the original "Mother of" quote from Saddam Hussein in 1990 -"Mother of all Wars"- nobody remembers where that came from but now its pop culture. Mother of all buying opportunities (MOABO) and Mother of all burgers at Jack in the Box. Something tells me this isn't what Saddam Hussein had in mind when he coined the term LOL. Anyway just last week I presented some guests with an "unstoppable tornado" margarita. mmmmm Bill Harmond never even uses those terms but you guys do!

There's a difference between axiom and dogma.

P.S. Your vestments could use dry cleaning.

>>One of my favorites is "excessively positive in manner or utterance" (Webster) -- as in "unlimited upside potential", core monster" and "unstoppable tornado". You are such a dogmatic clown Bill. Such a silly clown.<<
My favorite of the little clowns is "superbly" managed. (Webster) -- as in superb marked to the highest level by excellence, brilliance, or competence.
