    Does anyone actually read Myer's articles? I always try my best to skip them, I think he's a classic example of an over-educated idiot.

    I see him as childishly antagonistic, he knows how to push peoples buttons very well, and knows exactly what will keep people reading his column. I doubt he believes half of what he prints.

    Enough to feed your family for a week no doubt. I will send it via wire transfer in due course.

    Sir, I put it to you that you are too soft on these lower class types. The knave should be clipped around the ear and then sent back to his slovenly pit for daring to speak in such an uncouth manner about his betters.

    Honestly, if you start treating the plebians like they are real people we will have no end of bother, mark my words.

    Now, wheres my ivory back scratcher?

    edit:
    LOOK! The thief has pilfered my signet and is attempting to bring shame to my good name!
    I shall fetch the constabulary

    Yeah, that's what I think. It's not possible for someone so intelligent to be so dumb.

    My butler types my posts here.

    The hubby met Myers while playing pitch and putt one day, said he was a perfect gent but was a bit twitchy. I asked him what he meant by "twitchy" and the hubby said that when Myers was talking to him he stood very close to him and his head was twitching and jerking forward the odd time,the hubby thought that Myers was going to headbutt him at one stage,strange

    They're resourceful little beggars those proles. Apparently they scour one's recycle bins & pilfer the leftover megabytes & whatnot. Hanging's too good for them, I say.

    It's Thursday.

    I know you're from Fairview and all, but a calendar doesn't cost that much, maybe you could skim a bit off the top of this weeks dole payment and splash out on one?

    You know, people can be rich and not snobby. Sure look at the Monk for example.
