You also have to give credit to Colavita owner John Profaci for not getting bent out of
shape over losing one of (if not *the*) his best guys. He actually seems like he's pretty
stoked for TJ.

Yeah, it's really admirable all-around. I hope for best both for Colavita-Bolla and Johnson
in Europe.

Dumbass, it is "here, here" and was invented and used in the English Parliment as a call to the
speaker to recognize their side of the aisle. If you want to be an expert at something the least you
can do is look it up.

I liked this part, especially in reference to the person TK was responding to (heh): "hear, all
ye good people, hear what this brilliant and eloquent speaker has to say!"

If you want to correct someone, you should be right. Here [sic] you are not. The term comes from the
time of the Conquest, and the original French (something has to irk you, right ?) is "Oyez, oyez,"
which means "Hear, hear
!" The original French remains in current use in some US courts.

I wish the epithet "Dumbass" were not used so frequently, especially, when it is reflexive.

Bonne route -

There has been disagreement about the "meaning" meaning the spelling of it. As some have noted it
may have come from Oyez, Oyez, Oyez which is used in French courts. Just the thing that British
Parliamentarians were likely to copy I think our British group members would agree. (<-

I have a book that defines these sorts of things though I can't lay my hands on it presently. But
this book took the view that it meant "here here" and explained it rather thoroughly though danged
if I can remember much about it other than it was "here here".

Anyway, if you don't know who Gus Viseur is you shouldn't use French meanings for anything.

Tom, I've seen Parliament on the tube a few times, and whenever they started in with the "hear,
hear" (or "here, here"😉 action, it did seem more a sign of agreement with a speaker than an
attempt to attract attention. That would seem to point more towards the "hear" spelling to me. But
I will admit I wasn't really paying close attention to it, as I was waiting for some "m'Lords".

I always thought it was kind of funny to hear them addressing each other as "the Honorable
Member" - it seemed so dignified. But a month or two ago, I heard a piece on NPR where they had
some examples of the names they call each other. Not obscenities as we know them, but you
definitely got the message. Sorry I can't remember any of them, but some of it was hilarious.
