[Spridgets] Date adjustment on Spring OSHIT WWOSHIT in DodgeCity! !

[Rick Fisk]

Hi Jeff,

The acronym is actually "FIB" and becomes "Fibbies" in common speech.  FIB is an acronym for three words - the second is Illinois and the third is Bastard.  You can figure out what the first is.

I first heard it in everyday speech in southern Wisconsin and actually saw it in use on a billboard there advertising Greyhound dog racing - "Faster than a speeding Fibbie".  The driving habits of those from Illinois are not appreciated in Wisconsin.
