Of course I love words, word puzzles, poetry, etymology and anything else connected with words. That’s why I’m here after all. On the bus today my mind was drifting around something that I couldn’t quite fit into a poem but thought was quite clever anyway. ... if you carry on criticising people who watch a church burning then what you have is a “continuation of the condemnation of the contemplation of the conflagration of a congregation”. Almost a short poem in itself. "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | ||

I can admit the skill with which it is done without ever wanting to hear another word of it. "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | |||

So now that we are talking about it, it's a conversation about the continuation of the condemnation of the contemplation of the conflagration of a congregation but please keep it polite because I'd consider any swearing to be a contamination of the conversation about the continuation of the condemnation of the contemplation of the conflagration of a congregation "No man but a blockhead ever wrote except for money." Samuel Johnson. | |||
