    I forget which year... maybe it was 1992-1/2 when a young child uttered the words for the first time while staring fondly at a familiar pair of moobs. One school of thought has extolled the idea that it means "Dude, where are your white socks" while other proponents insist it actually means "Hey there Mr. Moobs, I want another bacon smoothie".
     
    Regardless of its origins It has been in constant use ever since.

    I thought the BaPu was the SI unit for unfunny.

    Hi,
     
    There was an indian boy in the jungle that used to tell this story about a big fish in the river, that no one could find or see. The boy used to tell tall tales about his conversations with the big fish and how that fish used to tell him so many neat things, including how to find food in the jungle and which roots he could eat.
     
    The boy was so taken by it, and one day was forced to tell the story to some other folks in town, and they all laughed, and of course, everyone went out every day and night to try and find that big fish and they never found it.
     
    The boy continued to tell the stories and no one believed him, and one day the boy disappeared. And no one could find him. So the myth started that the big fish had eaten up the boy.
     
    One day, many years later, someone found, buried in the jungle a bunch of books, handwritten, and they had all these stories in them. The stories were called ... "The Adventures of Bapu" ... and it had some very mystical and far out things about all the mythical civilizations in the jungle that no one has ever found, or seen, but somehow, everyone knows it exists.
     
    But where?

    As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

    I've seen pictures of Bapu.  He's too much for just one fish.
