Double Negative

  1. If you live in Boise, Idaho

    You are intimately familiar with the Bogus Basin Ski Area

    If someone is producing counterfeit ski passes, and they are for the Bogus Basin Ski area, what is a hapless editor supposed to call them

    Fake Bogus Ski Pass
    Counterfeit Bogus Ski Pass
    Unauthorized Bogus Ski Pass

    Maybe the last one, but it doesn't really say what is happening

    Just a funny name left over from gold mining in Idaho. Gold miners found lots of fool's gold, but no real gold in that area, which is why they called it the Bogus Basin.
