Vagueness and the Aftermath - A sporadic diary

[Claw75]

I got bitten in several spots a few weeks ago, and instead of disappearing after a day or two as usual they were still flaring up and itching 3 weeks on. I popped into the chemist on tuesday and the pharmacist said there seem to be a lot of nasty not-going-away insect bites around this year. She gave me some hydrocortisine cream and antihistamines, and it seems to be working a treat - no more itching and the swelling has gone right down

[Claw75]

Although of course, now i'm thinking about them they are itching again

Wiki wins:

Popping crease
The odd name of the popping crease refers to the early history of the game of cricket, when batsmen used to have to 'pop' their bats into a small hole that was located in the middle of the crease for a run to count. For a player to run a batsman out, he had to pop the ball into the hole before the bat was grounded in it.

One popping crease is drawn at each end of the pitch in front of each set of stumps. The popping crease is 4 feet (1.22 m) in front of and parallel to the bowling crease. Although it is considered to have unlimited length, the popping crease must be marked to at least 6 feet (1.83 metres) on either side of the imaginary line joining the centres of the middle stumps.

The popping crease is used as one test of whether the bowler has bowled a no ball. To avoid a no ball, some part of the bowler's front foot in the delivery stride (that is, the stride when he releases the ball) must be behind the popping crease, although it does not have to be grounded.

Stop pretending to be a grumpy old bastard. I'm not buying it.

A proper grown up would realise that the person is just doing their job and trying to be polite.

Saying pop instead of put doesn't constitute treating you like a child, kicking off about it however constitutes behaving like one.

You won't find Shakespeare quoted on a cement bag.

Correct, whereas, it seems to me, it is singularly appropriate to have Shakespeare embodded tea towels, bog roll or tissues.

blow yer nose on that, Son.

Mayor: Drebin, I don't want anymore trouble like you had last year on the South Side. Understand? That's my policy.

Frank: Yes. Well, when I see 5 weirdos dressed in togas stabbing a guy in the middle of the park in full view of 100 people, I shoot the bastards. That's *my* policy.

Mayor: That was a Shakespeare-In-The-Park production of "Julius Caesar", you moron! You killed 5 actors! Good ones.

At least the Mafia don't chuck you in the Hudson wearing boots made of tissue or tea towels.
