7343. OVER THE UNDERLINE

OVER THE UNDERLINE
'Please sign over the underline'  yeah, OK. 
What a dumb way to put it, I thought to 
myself. The same as 'please go down to
the up escalator to go upstairs.' The craziest 
mix-up of words I ever heard  -  but it's true, 
or it works, or, and least, the mind of the 
hearer doesn't fry itself and short circuit. 
Imagine if it did : a real bunch of frazzled
people milling around, with little to do 
and with less to say.
