When deKay added His comment by using a play on words to make "Discuss"
to mean the Sport "Discus" it hit my funny bone really hard so I just
had to make a Tagline out of it.

I knew enough about those two sports to know the shot put was really
heavy to throw in comparison to throwing a disk (discus).

Glad You liked it too!

The second BBS I joined in 1984 when using my C=64 PC and a VicModem
300 wasn't a Commodore Only BBS, it had messages about DOS and Windows.

I started seeing interesting Taglines in those messages then but never
thought to start a Tagline file on my 1541 FDD.

Ten Years later I had a 486 pc built and downloaded Silly Little Mail
Reader from one of the BBS I regularly looked at messages on.

I finally had a way to save Taglines!
But I only save the funny ones.

Sometimes I even make them up, as I did from reading the messages last
month in this echo.

Thanks! to deKay.
