Some things you have to love! Whilst curising the bay I happened upon the Ovation listings and read the following:

Ovation, Mother of Blue Tagament, bla, bla, bla,

So that's what MOB means? Glad I checked and found out! And here youse guys thought it was my udder board. That's almost as good as MOTS. Or is it Mother of Blew chunks? You remember the joke? where chunks was the dog????

You keep missing the point, MOB is a surfboard, not a guitar, it is Ovation's excursion into the surf board industry, it only looks somewhat like a guitar. Go get one and get out there and find a big wave and it will be endless summer (deja vu) all over again.

Bailey thanks! now I know what that MOB thing is. I knew it couldn't be a guitar. Wow Kaman Corporation is getting into the surf board industry. It all makes since now. And to think, for awhile I thought Ovation made only guitars....Paul Hebert

w-2,
I'm a little confused.. you posted "Whilst curising the bay..." Was that cruising or cursing?

a contraction actually, curiously crusing and occasionally cursing, or using my new favorite expression, (said with frog accent) Mothair of bleu!

This whole post suddenly gave me a flash of genius!

MOAB!!

MOTHER OF ALL BOARDS

Isn't that more positive than OFC or has someone used that acronym already?

Bailey,

That’s not a bad idea but I think the Defense Department has a corner on the acronym MOAB standing for ’Massive Ordnance Air Blast’ more fondly nicknamed 'Mother of All Bombs’.
I have also herd the nickname used by some when referring to the Tangent MOB. :D

You are so wrong. MOB stands for "my old bean" some sort of obscure British expresseion that we need Paul Templeton to interpret.

Al, I was a bit lost on that one, but after a quick investigation....

http://www.worldwar1.com/heritage/wordswar.htm says that:
"Old Bean" is "A Form of address which started in the Royal Navy about 1914 and spread to other services."

www.londonslang.com offers: 'to flick one's bean' is for a woman to masturbate

Take your pick.

WOW

Look what happens when we even contemplate a MOB, endless summer pops right up.

Merde Old Beanflicker, or Merde Old Bos'n, the choice is ours.

That blue beast has strange Mojo.
