Daily Mail, top of page 13: American footballers won't stand for
National Anthem. Bottom of page 13: British pedants won't stand
for split infinitives. Cultural divide? What cultural divide, haha...

A theist is a tea addict, apparently (Mail). Atheists, too, are

Who doesn't like a 3-liner? (Quite a few of you don't, apparently.) Well, I'll have you know that many a critic has said of my work "at least it's in English" - and as for the great Stephen Fry, he once said of me "Vincent who?" Let's just say I supply the litter to the litterati [sic - but only at times] - ie: I write rubbish. But rubbish mostly inspired by the HAIKU, the 17th Century Japanese verse form consisting of 3 lines and 17 (5-7-5) syllables. (WARNING: flash photography and limericks)
