    Default Grand Poo-bah

    Sorry if this is an obvious question, but what does Grand Poo-bah mean? I've seen Castwell use it numerous times, as well as other users, is it just a nickname?
    Thanks - David

    Although I question whether anyone should actually know information like this, here it is anyway - I think its from a Gilbert & Sullivan musical about an egotistical guy who named himself "Lord High Everything Else." I apologize for even knowing that.

    Not to answer in place of JC, ... But wasn't that the name of the head of the "lodge" in the Flintstones (Where fred and Barney worn the big "buffalo" hats with horns sticking out each side).

    For those who seem to have the impression the name Grand Poo-bah is a title of power and entitlement which Castwell uses; the truth is it is a JOKE. He is poking fun at himself.
    That's all - no other hidden anything.

    My pharmacist buddy had the best line ever.

    "Theres your order Mr. Doe"

    " Thats Dr. Doe"

    "What are you a doctor of?"

    "I have phd in Philosophy"

    "Oh.So youre not a real doctor."

    Absolutely precious.

    Grand Poo-bah is a fan of Lonesome Dove. My favorite western of all time.

    Pharmacists probably are the funniest people in the world, also smartest.
    (notice the grammatical error there).

    Lonesome Dove is very good, but its not better than Rio Bravo. And sorry JC if this turns into a best western string.
