NBS BOAR OF TRUSTEES Öffentlichkeit Deposited

NBS BOAR OF TRUSTEES
NBS publications are not immune from typos. The latest
appears on the voting ballot inserted in the latest issue
of our print journal, The Asylum, regarding a proposal for
a two-thirds vote of the Board of Trustees to name an
Honorary member.Dick Johnson writes: "I received today the latest Asylum
and the ballot. Who is the Boar of Trustees? Who gets
named to this piscine position? The picture that came to
mind immediately was the trustees sitting around a dinner
table with a fully cooked boar ready to be carved into
thirds and they had to eat two-thirds of it."[It's not the "Boar of Trustees". The actual word is, of
course, "Boor". The Boor of Trustees, chosen by
acclamation, is a sweaty, rude, insensitive, loud-talking
bibliophile of questionable personal hygiene who
invariably sits next to YOU for the duration of the NBS
general meeting at the ANA convention each summer.
