It's impossible that anyone in the world (except perhaps for a few semi-feral home-schooled children whose parents were convinced that television is a "bad influence", and who therefore grew up poorly socialized, doomed to a life drifting without any roots in shared popular culture) could be unfamiliar with every hour of "I Love Lucy." (I reject notions of oceans and nations and continents as sufficient to stop the inevitable sharing of so important and powerful a cultural artifact.) Thus, the only possible conclusion is that Hoppy is detail-oriented and was practising tough love with you, pretending obtuseness because you scrambled the syllables of "Vitameatavegamin" -- which you, in turn, were clearly doing as an exercise in literary license because you wished to create a stronger parallel with Vegemite. http://everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1788283 _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
