BLT
(redirected from Blts)

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Acronyms, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
1.BLT - /B-L-T/, /bl*t/ or (rarely) /belt/ Synonym for blit. This is the original form of blit and the ancestor of bitblt. It refers to any large bit-field copy or move operation (one resource-intensive memory-shuffling operation done on pre-paged versions of ITS, WAITS and TOPS-10 was sardonically referred to as "The Big BLT"). The jargon usage has outlasted the PDP-10 BLock Transfer instruction from which BLT derives; nowadays, the assembly language mnemonic BLT almost always means "Branch if Less Than zero".
2.BLT - bacon, lettuce and tomato (sandwich).

THEY may be more used to MOTs and BLTs but the Hairy Bikers are calling on families to give youngsters some TLC.
Guests were invited to the delicious array of food, including pork tenderloin with country mashed potatoes, tomato shooters with mini grilled cheese sandwiches, shrimp and grits, fruit and cheeses, curried vegetables, squash dip, sundried tomato BLTs, chicken pastry puffs, sausage and cheese wontons, barbeque sliders, and other delicious items prepared and served by caterer Rita Robinson of Tupelo.
I say it should be replaced with stuff that actually tastes good – like tacos, roast beef sandwiches, pizza, and BLTs with thick and juicy portions of red meat.
