Interesting that Freddie copyrighted this in 1997, because I've had a copy in my toolbox since 1971!
Supposedly done by a Lockheed engineer in the late '60s.

Another life strategy Paul, take the time to add to your toolbox when ever you are able.

Is that why I have so many spoons and so few forks?

I have one of these in my toolbox as well, but also with the infamous "F" word in it. "Ooops, You dumb F---!"
Anyway, it is quite funny, and can be usefull, besides.

"insinuendo" - what a wonderful malapropism! I love it!

Ry Cooder's album of '03 was "Mambo Sinuendo". Dane takes it to another level...

Well, thanks brothers...but I can't claim credit on this one...'insinuendo' comes from some film. My recollection (foggy though it may be on occasion) is that it was uttered by Peter O'Toole's character in 'The Ruling Class', an outstanding examination of social stratification in the U.K. The line in question occurs, if I'm correct, in the first half of the film, during which O'Toole, playing an obscenely wealthy and mentally deranged country manor dweller, believes himself to be Jesus Christ. Upon using the malaprop and being called on it by one of his relatives, he explains the meaning as '...an insinuation leading to an innuendo...'
Needless to say, I heartily recommend this heart-warming foray into the minds of the Aristocracy...
