NBS BOAR OF TRUSTEES

  NBS publications are not immune from typos.  The latest
  appears on the voting ballot inserted in the latest issue
  of our print journal, The Asylum, regarding a proposal for
  a two-thirds vote of the Board of Trustees to name an
  Honorary member.

  Dick Johnson writes: "I received today the latest Asylum
  and the ballot.  Who is the Boar of Trustees? Who gets
  named to this piscine position? The picture that came to
  mind immediately was the trustees sitting around a dinner
  table with a fully cooked boar ready to be carved into
  thirds and they had to eat two-thirds of it."

  [It's not the "Boar of Trustees".  The actual word is, of
  course, "Boor".  The Boor of Trustees, chosen by
  acclamation, is a sweaty, rude, insensitive, loud-talking
  bibliophile of questionable personal hygiene who
  invariably sits next to YOU for the duration of the NBS
  general meeting at the ANA convention each summer.
