A few minutes ago, WRT his resigning from and his berating of the BoD of
the NRA:

"Wow! Adolphus Busch IV _breaks bad on_ the NRA!"


Of course, I would have used "breaks nasty on."

But, what can you do? Well, this does open the door to my (re)introducing
the "correct" <har! har!> formula without having to worry that my non-ALS
readers won't know what I'm saying.
