Member @256bits, maybe you placed the ...bing... link in the wrong forum section.
.... but whatever case, I eventually quickly checked some brief reading about BTO in Wikipedia.


edit: I needed some explanation, which came in a later post.

Taking Care of Business is a song about being self employed at working all day doing nothing, maybe even doing some overtime -- or so goes the chorus.
Theme song for @fresh_42 post regarding nothing is possible.
Easy for someone like me to misunderstand. I began thinking about that aspect of the lyrics while listening. That was the basic focus on why placement was to "Collection of Lame Jokes".

My quantum physics professor told me that I should try to get into the field of nuclear physics and I might find it very interesting.

A physicist was attending a conference in a large venue that happened to also be holding an economics conference. One morning the physicist wandered down the wrong hallway and found himself attending a talk on economics.

Later he described it to his colleagues as quite illuminating. It was a lot like a physics talk, they even had differential equations.

The only difference is that the solutions to the equations don't have to match observation. :)

Well, I thought referring to a person " correctly " as a Chocolate shake, was funny. But I get it's a matter of taste.
