Even the 11+ dropout "dross"

I don't agree with that - surely it negates what you said above?

Irony. I sensed that the mayor plus dignitaries were present purely
out of duty to their voters and not because of any undue pride in
those who had achieved in spite of the odds against them - like
finding it amazing that we had managed to walk on our hind legs at
all. The parents, of course, were soley there because they were

darned
proud that their offspring had indeed achieved something.

OK, sorry I missed it.

I was taking you seriously ... I usually do :-)

Yeah, like that time I sidled up to you in the supermarket, remember?
No, it was me, honest!

But it wasn't me - I don't go to supermarkets :-)

Oh, poor Mike, how embarrassing for you - LOL

Mary


It was this woman with a screaming kid, going Jesus H Christ over and
over, so I thought...


My kids don't scream, I don't blaspheme, what did you do apart from sidling?


Sidling is about the sum of it, I'm afraid. I was wearing a raincoat,
though.

If you wish to prove this charge, you need only quote one tiny little
factoid to show that Steve's beliefs about your qualifications are entirely
imaginary (which I presume to be what you mean when you repetitively
describe him as a "mentalist"). It does not have to be verifiable, just
believable.

I doubt it. But I now have the unshakeable mental image of you as Beaker.
