Larry,

Apparently you were spending too much time bussing booze at the bar
while busing on the bus, to those bussing on the bus, while the bus was
busing the Atlas bus to remember to include the random bus that carried
you to this "buss" (slang./n/..General waste of hot air while in
intimate contact with another...Not included in your list)......

Busses,

Peter Hughes
