A as in Edision

Once I stop laughing uncontrollably, I may be able to relate better. Friday night, one looser at work, me, working on some driver interfacing tool. And *bzzzzzz* *bzzzz* my cell phone rings. So its Mo, my dear old friend. He has a question about some software. So after telling him off for not being able to solve such a simple problem I guide him to the solution. And add in, you can also search the web for "PEBKAC" that would give you more information on the problem you are facing.

Mind you this conversation isn't on your standard crisp regular phone lines. This is on my Telus provider phone. Not too clear.
me: So you can also search Google for "P E B K A C"
Mo: Search for what?
me: P as in Pat, E as in Edison, B as in Bob, K as in Kangaroo, A as in Anim..
Mo: Hold on, P as in Pat, A as in Edison, B as in.. (mind you he does pronounce it "Edison")
me: Mo "E" as in Edison..
Mo: There is no Edison with "E"
Me: Thomas Edison?
Mo: Oh yeaaaa... its friday night.. i just want to sleep... okay so P as in Pat, E as in Edison, B as in Bob, K as in Kangaroo, A as in Awioejkja (he said something on the choppy line)
me: A as in What??
Mo: you know that species of monkeys, rare, extinct
Me: Mo.... its a BAD line, the point of this A as in .... is to make sense... how about something simple? like A as in Apple???

okay doesnt sound as funny now. But man both of us laughed our brains out.. on the A as in Aasdljf and A as in Edison.


BTW you should check out "PEBKAC", if you already don't know it. I usually don't like to refer to wikipedia, personally i feel its not too reliable. Well I guess it is for standard general knowledge, but go a bit technical, then it starts becoming "doubtable".
