Polloi here, polloi there. I'm comfortable with myself being a commoner.

Commoner, in England, is a word used to describe a person of low and mean status. I think they are deemed, much to the annoyance of Jacobins, to have some defective genes, or something like that, by those who might risk their ministrations if they thought otherwise.

Otherwise they might infiltrate the upper classes and that would never do. I heard a semiserious discussion about the luckless Kate Middleton on the radio, and some chinless wonder was saying she was too middle class to marry a prince, mainly because her mother was an air hostess and calls a lavatory a toilet.

Toilet jokes are items I avoid in polite company. Not that I am ever in such situations in the normal course of events.

Events are happening in this small town for carnival week. They aren't especially alluring.

Alluring would be a fitting term for Shilpa Shetty if she didn't look so much like a ladyboy. She probably keeps her weight artificially low by dietary means.

Means to an end, are they justified? Politicians tend to think so.

So to bed, as Samuel Pepys used to write in his diary. I suppose A2K is the equivalent of a diary for us all, but will it stand the test of time and be available in 4 centuries?

Centuries pass as do millenia; even epochs, eras and ages. They say that the Stone Age was one of rampant lust but I can't see it myself as the female of our species had not the knowledge and refinement to go shopping for a lavender suspender belt and open-crotch frillies like they do now.

Now is the time. Windows Vista is here and they want us to try it.

It won't be better than any Apple product, I bet. You'll have to spend the first year ironing out the glitches.

Glitches are commonplace expressions in computer terminology. They may mean, slipping, sliding, irregularities, malfunctioning or little electrical errors.

Errors in A2K have miraculously disappeared, it seems, of late. Also the glitch in the Answer my question with a question has been cured.

Cured of nervousness Auntie Clarissa began behaving in a most scandalous manner. It would be unbecoming to speak of the sort of things she got up to.

To enumerate three of them: appearing in her garters at breakfast in the Strand Palace Hotel; knitting Piss Off into a sweater for her least favourite grandson; and picking all her neighbours' prize zinnias.

Glass-house should be the starting word for this post, just as Zinnias should have been that for the post before. Glass-house in England is called greenhouse.

Greenhouse gases come from cow's arses, car arses, airplane arses and arses in general. And Henry Miller said that if **** had value the poor wouldn't have arses at all.

Greenhouse Rock- you'd never sell many records with a song title like that. How about "I Was Kaiser Bill's Batman?

Batman is a comics fictional superhero who first appeared in Detective comics in 1939. Batman was co-created by artist Bob Kane and writer Bill Finger, although only Kane receives official credit.
