Look. I hate: tort. Tortoise shells, tortellini, torture, torque wrenches, torsion bars, the Dry Tortugas, the Tour De France, tourists, bike tours, tormentors, tornadoes, torn jeans, tour buses, Turin, Italy, two for one deals, turncoat, turn signals, and turnabout is fair play, . To every thing is turn, turn, turn.
Alright, turn about is fair play.
Alright, turn about is fair play.

I could have sworn it said "To the TURTLE Chamber"!! I need new glasses..... with tort frames.....
Ah yes, the Tort-totalers movement.
Go ahead with your wicked ideas of tort prohibition and see what happens.
It will only create an underground of illegal tort speakeasy and blind pig establishments as well as a strong and violent gangster driven black market headed by the Al Capone of tort, Geraldo Rivera.
Have you any idea of the ruinous effects of bathtub tort?
They just didn't handle it correctly.....
Too many Tort-easy's sprung up as you said.
ROTH will learn from their mistakes and clear the way for alltime Tort banishment...
You forgot the head coach of the Columbus Blue Jackets.

the plague is so widespread it now includes the lowly guinea pig!
"Tortoiseshell is a colour type comprising three distinct colours, often black, white and brown/red. This combination usually occurs in a set of checks covering the entire body of the guinea pig. Tortoiseshell colour types are often very rare and quite difficult to find in the market because of an increased popularity for other colour types and also due to cross-breeding."

That's no guinea pig. That's a calico cat.

. (please don't ask for pics 
).
I was thinking about having spitfire make some green and yellow tort for my Antigua Precision. You guys would love that I'm sure.
Wait, let me check my tort faced watch..............yes....... yes I have just enough time for this thread.
Man, just 'cause a guy's dad made him take his GF to the prom in the '70's family station wagon that had that fake swirly wood on the dashboard, which is really NOT Tort, and a luggage rack and fake wood on the side panels, is no reason to grow up hating Tort and everyone who does like it. Get a hobby or get counciling. SMILE E. FACE.
I end by wishing Torts M'Gorts to you all, and to all a good Tort!

The family station wagons had cheap swirly Tort.
The better models had more realistic Tort.
Anybody who took his GF to the prom in the parent's 70's family station wagon with fake wood side panels is a TORT NERD
I could shorten that down to "TERD" for brevity....
Fake swirly wood side panels were a gateway visual to Tort addiction.
I'm just wondering at what point in history did someone say:-
" Hmmm....I need a pickguard for my bass...let's see..I need one that looks like a cross between vomit and diarrhea.."
"There...that's perfect...a big blob of simulated shyte on the front of my bass.."
