Its actually a phrase that is used a lot on wood working boards abbreviated SWMBO. There is actually a few webpages tracing back the origina of the phrase -- I do not remember the whole story -- but supposedly it comes from an old book by a famous author (I forget who), but there is a real question as to whether it was actually written. Go to THEOAK.COM and search for SWMBO a lot whill come up, but someone always asls what it means and the responses direct you to all of the discussions. |
