To the Bit Bucket with him!

I used to haul punch cards for my dad when he rented cpu time on weekends. That was early 70's, and the computer did less than my hp calculator.

Do the little punch-outs i used to throw in the river qualify?

re: Bit Bucket

It's the modern translation of the word hellbox. Anyone here familiar with it? It's a newspaper term.
