This has nothing to do with guitars (I don't think).. I just saw this title, in big letters on the side of a truck and I'm still laughing.

Appearently the company is "Direction Boring Specialist" (which doesn't clarify a lot) but probably means they dig those special holes of blasting...

Helluva job title...

There's an entry in the UK yellow pages, under "Boring" it says "See Civil Engineers"

Miles, Paul

I was going to tell you about boring under streets and parking lots when I worked installing water lines, but that would be boring about boring and I'm not even a civil engineer.

There's a town about a hundred miles from here named Boring, Oregon. Except for the Boring Tavern, which is full of nekked girls & is a lot of things but none of them are boring, Boring mostly is (boring).

Being from Central Washington state, I would have to agree with you, Nils. Kinda like, "Don't blink...."

Ever go to the Boring tavern seesquare? I saw a young lady in there about ten years ago with a can of lighter fluid & a Bic (& nuthin' else). She set fire to some stuff you wouldn't think would tolerate that sort of thing. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it sure wasn't boring!

Well, Nils, that DOES appeal to my prurient interests, but no, I haven't experienced the ambience of that entertainment mecca. I will have to include that in my next travel itinerary!! THANKS!

I kinda doubt if "Princess Flaming Beaver" will still be doing her thing after ten years seesquare, but there's probably still something entertaining going on in there. Come to think of it, if she actually has been blowing all that fire through her equipment for ten years, her afterburner might be a little scorched by now. That might cut back a tad on the appeal of the whole extravaganza.

Truly amazing. The mental imagery is a bit overwhelming, though. Might need some serious medication for recurrent, intrusive, internal stimulation!!
