Re: Oh, they're real!

Heh..:)

Yep... the term Bollocks is used to denote bullshit and\or disbelief, refusal.... were | to say to you " Marx really knew what he was talking about!".. and you replied " Bollocks!"......... we'd understand each other :)

But "Bollocks" refers to the part of the anatomy that Roman soldiers used to place thier hands on when swearing alliegance.

Why the term " The Dogs Bollocks" has come to signify " best of it's kind" is beyond me.... I remember a a restuarant in south London applying to the local council to call itself that.... the council refused... so they translated it into French and had no trouble in getting that through:)
