Indeed, I was responding to the twitterpated fawning of two grown men. I would not be put out if the computer speakers were named after the First Lady of Canadian wedge-shaped speakers.

Yeah, they are pretty good. Sign me up for the BNS club!
P.S. Mary, one of these days I'll get that CD in the mail for you ...

Oh...so the BNS Club was referring to me?  Being so naive, I didn't get the reference either!  Hmmm...maybe I should start the BNS Club and Jack will be my number 1 member! One of these days, Jack...

Peter, your Twitterpated Fawning meter obviously needs calibration. Cranial-Rectal Inversion is the typical cause for measurements so far from the mean. Jack, you weren't seriously including ME in that "older guys" crack, right? Are you getting me and Ray mixed up or something? How about a nice cup of tea? There, that's good. We'll talk again after your nap.

CERTAINLY, I was. Is you is, or is you ain't "older" than Mary.  And, while you may not (yet) be a member of the "over the hill club," I want you to know that, as President, I'm having your membership card drawn up as we speak.

Ironically, at the moment, I'm actually drinking a glass of Arizona Green Tea with ginseng and honey. YUM! And, I've already had my nap.  
Mary, you're going to cause a coronary.

Interesting blurb at Gizmodo. It indicates that the 3-piece computer speaker set "will come out this June for $599" and that the "wireless (and solar powered) outdoor speaker planned for the summer...will cost around $500 to $600 for a pair".

Looks like they named 'em already--M0. Is Gizmodo part of the contest?
Nice work, Detective Tuttle.
