bradm Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 What does the "M" part of "BradM" stand for? My candidates: It's a typo.Some last name that starts with "M".Meshugge.It's the Millenium edition of BradNothing; it's just that Brads A through L didn't work very well.Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradm Posted October 8, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 quote:Originally posted by CanuckDuck: MacGyver?Funny you should mention that. Since I became a neophyte taper, my "MacGyver" skills have to come to the fore even more. Taping often involves displays of improvisational technology (i.e., solving a problem by looking around, seeing what's nearby, and utilizing what you're got at hand in creative and non-obvious ways), which is what Mac was known for. I also carry a Swiss Army Knife, for what it's worth. It was also one of my favourite shows, back in the day. I wish it was in syndication in this area.

bradm Posted October 8, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 According to one MacGyver FAQ, his first name was "Angus". Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms.Huxtable Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 I LOVED THAT SHOW! I had a cruch on Richard Dean Anderson because he was so darn handy. Combine him and Bob Villa and you get...my Dad! I guess it's true that women wnat men like their fathers. Hmmm. Kinda perverse. I guess I'm a bit homesick.

bradm Posted October 8, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 Hey, I've got a beard like Bob, a knife like MacG, and can jerry-rig stuff with aplomb and a break-neck disregard for the health of myself and all those around me. In the words of a great t-shirt, "Who's your daddy?" Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyC Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 I liked that show alot too.. Remember the Bigfoot episode.. Scared the snot out of me as a youngster.. Its funny they didn't mention the name "angus" in many episodes, if any. Would the show have been as good if it was called Angus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h Posted October 8, 2002 Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 i remember the bigfoot episode in the bionic man - that was cool, i think jamie was in it too. brad m - um ... martini? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradm Posted October 8, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2002 Speaking of old TV and martinis, anybody else remember the Wayne & Shuster "Rinse the Blood Off My Toga" thing? It was set in ancient Rome... Bartender: What'll you have. Drinker: A martinus. Bartender: You mean martini. Drinker: If I'd wanted a double, I'd have ordered it. See, in Latin, the "i" ending is used for plural forms of nouns ending in "us"...OK, it's kinda lame, but many Latin jokes are there?
