Well! I don't know about you, but it sounds rather redundant, when you say it like that... :mrgreen:


Besides, I decided to start my own, and to call it what I did. It's even more redundant, because of the existence of the first one... :P

Just do what I did. I just got a universal remote, so I can rewind whenever I miss something.

Or, rather, I could, if I can find some batteries that fit this thing, as well as program it. The instructions are in ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs.

Properly referred to as 'the Redundant Department of Redundancy' or RDOR- part of the Adjutant Corps (see "Shield of Shame"). Their primary mission is to design the paperwork that HQs thrive on, typically in quadruplicate with seven extra copies to go to ;
1) NORAD
2) the Vice President
3) the Speaker of the House
4) the National Enquirer
5) Roger Oyler
6) Podunk Hollar County Dog Catcher
7) Michal Moore

I know. Funny thing, that wasn't the first time Mr. Walken played that character.

A SciFi novel I read had a city named (IIRC) Delphstonopolisburg . . .

The local person commented that the founders had peculiar senses of humor.
