I have been told that my question about foo and bar is equal to
Paddy O'furniture and lightbulb jokes, as far as netters are concerned.
However, when I posted it, I honestly did not know the origin of the
two phrases in question.

I have also since learned the origin of the phrases. So, please, no flames,
either to the net or me.  I will humbly do an "Emily Latella" and say,
Please, "Never Mind". "Mea Culpa", etc....
