The Quotes Explained
The Flaming Backhoe Bed LauncherTM.
Alex, 12/6/98
A group of us were hanging out and talking about random stuff, including the game of appending "in bed" to the end of fortune cookie messages. (Consider something like "You will travel far and meet interesting people... in bed.") Earlier in the conversation, Alex had explained how he and some of his friends would use the phrase "I dig that with a massive backhoe." At one point he also said, "Things are always more interesting when you set them on fire."
Inevitably, we managed to put all three phrases together:
"I dig that with a massive backhoe."
"In bed."
"And set it on fire."
"The Flaming Backhoe Bed LauncherTM!"
