O.K., O.K., don’t sweat it. Don’t b. y. b. (bust your brains) wondering what the title of this article signifies; I’ll tell you right away. This piece was forwarded to me by Paul, one of the leading members of the Backup Team … and rather than just passing that information on to you, I decided to mark it by naming it after him – or at least with the nickname that his close friends have burdened him with.
I love this one. As they say in the colloquialism, I like it baaad. So without hesitation, as I have done so often in the past when something finds favour with me, I pass it on to you.
So … thanks, Paulie Paullox. And as for the rest of you, enjoy:
