First?

[Musically Challenged]

OK ladies...who has the smartest nipples in this place ?

[blurkernomore]

I stopped at the headline. Didn't read one more word. I'll make up the article myself.

[Addicted to 24]

I am with blurke on this one. I am just going to let my mind wander.

[fivver]

Within harsh operating environments manual lubrication regimes are seldom efficient. Multi-task operational requirements mean that time consuming, labour intensive greasing schedules run an ongoing risk of neglect by either under or over-lubrication.

I don't know blurk, at least the article starts on a hopeful note.

[Susan]

First ever post... and a first even.
Great headline.

[queensbee]

here's where that one took me......

Graham Chapman: Trouble at mill.
Carol Cleveland: Oh no - what kind of trouble?
Chapman: One on't cross beams gone owt askew on treddle.
Cleveland: Pardon?
Chapman: One on't cross beams gone owt askew on treddle.
Cleveland: I don't understand what you're saying.
Chapman: (slightly irritatedly and with exaggeratedly clear accent)
One of the cross beams has gone out askew on the treddle.
Cleveland: Well what on earth does that mean?
Chapman: *I* don't know - Mr Wentworth just told me to come in here and say
that there was trouble at the mill, that's all - I didn't expect a
kind of Spanish Inquisition.

and i think we know the rest.

*looks for "nipple report card"

[blurkernomore]

Now, I'm all for multi-tasking, but if the operating environment is so harsh that it requires intensive greasing ya might wanna change your area of operation.

[Cheryl]

See ... THIS is why I can risk de-bra-ification!!

My nipples are too smart.

[Cheryl]

I meant CAN'T risk ...

but anyway ...

Mojitos all around.

[blurkernomore]

Yeah, Cheryl, but at least they're not greasy.
I hope.

[blurkernomore]

‘smart’ nipples which incorporate a sealed transponder which ‘talks’ to a grease meter fitted to the grease gun dispenser."

There are too many jokes in that line to even begin to pick one.

[fivver]

Does the grease gun 'squirt' or 'shoot'? Inquiring minds and all.

[queensbee]

snork. in general.

[blurkernomore]

fivver, they must "squirt". Ya don't wanna go around shootin' nipples.

[sthnbelle]

OK, I just want to know what the heck Stephen was searching for when he found this article.

Or maybe not.

[Cheryl]

*snork* at sthnbelle!

BUSTED! No pun intended.

[sthnbelle]

Well, thanks for the snork, Cheryl, but it sure seems like I tossed some cold water on this thread!

Wait, wouldn't that make things more - ummmm - perky?

[Higgy]

Weren't there shooting nipples in one of the Austin Powers movies?

[blurkernomore]

Yes, Higgy, but they were doin' the shootin' not gettin' shot. receiving the shot tends to upset the particular person said nipples happen to be attached to.

[Jazzzz]

I guess it's just too obvious that "Shooting Nipples" WBAGNFARB

[fivver]

Slippery Nipple Shooter?

[Jacki]

Double *snork* at sthnbelle. I just want to know who the heck wrote this stuff with a straight face.

[marfie]

NOBODY expects the Efficient Lubrication! Our chief system is smart nipples...smart nipples and grease...grease and smart nipples.... Our two systems are grease and smart nipples...and a talking transponder.... Our *three* systems are grease, smart nipples, and a talking transponder...and an almost fanatical devotion to LubeRIght.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our systems.... Amongst our systemry...are such elements as grease, smart nipples.... I'll come in again.

*multiple snorks for all*, with an added oakleaf cluster for marfie
