A lesson in electrocution

[Laurence Harvey]

How soon before we have plumb pies..... maybe even plumers installing pipes

They could keep the various parts in neatly arranged draws.

Neatly arranged draws make it easier fot Plummers to locate there favourite Plum Bob.

Perhaps we need an orthography department.

As for the thread:

When I was a boy I was murdered when I fell off my bike.

but are we better off, is the English language better off, because of the change in what "gay" means?

It's a shame we can't use the word "gay" in its proper sense any more, without being laughed at. Or "queer" for that matter.

I can remember when people used both words in their proper senses. My mum had a "gaybox" on the wall; this was a little shelf unit for ornaments.

"Gay" and "queer" are now words for the same thing. This was not so in the past. If you drank a lot at a party you would feel quite gay after a while, but next morning you would wake up feeling right queer.
