This spagthorpe story brought to mind the story of the Gormerly - a
small airplane built back in the early days of aviation. The gentleman
of whose inovation it was, was really named Gormerly Bulsh. He named his
plane the Gormerly, and the plane was quite popular. Over time the name
gradually changed from Gormerly to Bulsh. On weekends flyers  would
flock to the local country airport to see and fly the Bulsh. In time,
when a flyer was asked what he was doing for the day, he would reply
"I'm going to the airport and Bulsh-it."  That comment sort of said it all!

Is it Fryeday yet?
