I was just watching old episodes of Greek and at the end of the episode The great Cappie. Cappie called his ex girlfriends ex boyfriend bing. I was searching for what it meant (actually I wanted to see if my idea was correct) and what I came up with is rebound. The now ex boyfriend was called bing because he was the rebound guy.

Does it make sense? No clue but that is what the word will always mean to me now

You know this made me think of a quote. It’s something like: “All life is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.” Ralph Waldo Emerson

I just started playing scrabble a week ago. To my surprise i won the first two match. :D Probably they got bored of waiting while i took my own sweet time to play my turn. Even though after winning two games, i still can’t figure out what you guys are talking about. :P I played Scrabble on facebook. its fun :D

my initial test result shows that Bing is as good as Google when displaying relevant search results. Google might be having a tough competitor with Microsofts own search engine.

My Name is Steve Bingner. When my family first came to the USA from Germany in 1898 our surname was Bingener. My grandfather John Henry changed it to Bingner, he dropped the “e”. Using the information provided above, I would almost think that Bingner meant a person that worked with iron ore. (ner meaning person who worked with)

The problem of course is that Bingner was not our name when we came to this country.

What might the name Bingener have meant at the time it was created in Germany, if that is where it was in fact created.

Thanks for your help.

hmmmm . . .

I remember in the days when I was working as a drug rehabilitation counselor in a residential treatment center (aka, prison lite), among the very rich street vocabulary I encountered was the reference to a disciplinary area as “the bing.” This was a sort of solitary confinement, which, because it was used to attempt to control recalcitrant residents, was also known as “the recal area.” As I recall, neither term was in favor with the administration, while bing was favored by residents and recal by officers.

My favorite was the coinage of one of the residents of the term “recal bing.”
