Who was the Booby Who Thought Up Colour-Coding, Anyway?

[Kilmatead]

You've made my life hell.  I just thought you should know that.

Back when the world was in black and white and I grew up using a monochrome-amber CRT everything made sense.  Junk food was good for you; All music on the radio was good; and John Wayne won the war single-handedly - the world just made sense.

Now what have we got?  Stupid "green-friendly" cars to fight terrorism; Silly muppets pretending they exist on reality-telly to forget economic meltdown; And all music, everywhere, by everyone, is derivative.  D-e-r-i-v-a-t-i-v-e, I say!

And it's all Colour-Coding's fault.



(And yes, I meant Booby in the sense of Pelecaniformes, what did you think I meant?)

The boobies don't care about you. I expect they invented color coding to sort themselves out.   Red-footed vs blue-footed and all that.  But who was that masked man?

The boobies don't care about you.

I can handle l'indifference of nature, but it's the implied conformity (through self-expression) of the military industrial complex which gets me down, man.  It's such a negative vibe.  Or was that Donald Sutherland in Kelly's Heroes?

I've heard of blue-stocking'ed girls, but those boobies take the cake.  Or at least the mackerel.

But who was that masked man?

Bruce Wayne.  :shock:

sorry ... it was Clayton Moore  :roll: ...  even though the resemblance to to the masked booby is limited.  ;)
