I think after GRB, since that definition was posted the same day as this thread: http://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/viewto ... =4&t=30839

The thread notes that "joeybomb" had been used before. In fact, coleburns proposed a definition here: http://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/viewto ... 3&start=30

Here's a slightly later definition:http://www.gatewayredbirds.com/forum/vi ... 7&start=10

Joeybombs was still a member of the forum at that time. Radbird shows that the meaning of joeybomb was fairly well known, and that its usage was frequent: http://gatewayredbirds.com/forum/viewto ... 5&start=20

I hope this etymological moment was helpful. The evidence suggests that the use of joeybomb as a word begins with coleburns at GRB.

Did you know that the 2013 Dodge Ram with the Cummins motor has nearly a dozen different fuse types? Also the two I need are not in stock at the local parts store or dealership.

Why is it that thumbs typically don't work on any Apple device? Drives me nuts.
