We get letters: today’s Shakespeare
So, on December 2, Cesare Rizzuto, at thecuttingedge180@gmail.com, pops me a line. He writes:
You really are à small man Get over it Ford got votes in not Mr. E health Get à réal job.
Sweet, short, to the point, albeit almost incomprehensible. Uncharacteristically speechless, I respond with nothing.
Cesare, undeterred, comes back, today:
The more i trad you the more i will vote P.C. Have you ever had à réal. job.
I do not wish to anger the Ford Nation, but I do not know what a “réal. job” is. Throwing caution to the wind, I respond:
Consider spell check. Please.
What will Cesare say next?
In the Ford Nation, when you get a divorce, you still get to remain brother and sister.
That made me shoot a glass of Diet Coke through my nose
I hope you weren’t wearing one of your best shirts.
Ted H that was a beauty! Best one yet. Do you mind if I use it once in awhile?
Warren too bad you couldn’t pay wall these fools.
I’m pretty sure he needs a comprehension check as well.
Great Cesare’s ghost!
Two things. A-Making fun of someone spelling and/or spelling mistakes on the internet is never a good idea. Google spelling troll. B-If you knew both official languages you would realize that the guy was using spell check. The “à” and “réal” are typical of a francophone auto correct.
And now for something completely different…
Un Loup quelque peu clerc prouva par sa harangue
Qu’il fallait dévouer ce maudit animal,
Ce pelé, ce galeux, d’où venait tout leur mal.
Sa peccadille fut jugée un cas pendable.
Manger l’herbe d’autrui ! quel crime abominable !
Yeah I guess it is more or less how this Fable de La Fontaine translates in low english.
Thomas, va chier.
Classy
Perfect reply.
Short, and to the point.
“Get réal,” Thomas, quoth the poet.
Quoth?
I thought they’d all be wrapped up in the royal baby story.
Dave,
One should never encourage a collective monarchist swoon — especially during rush hour traffic!
Way to provoke the mental in our sociey Warren! LOL
Changing the subject for a moment. A couple of days ago you posted something I wrote about a cop buying and giving shoes to a homeless man and I provided a link to the story. I think I said that “just when you think the world is turning to shit, something like this happens.” I was referring to this random act of kindness.
Now read this-all of it please…………….

Anyway I still believe in Santa Claus and always will and I think the cop was great.
It’s less what he’ll “say” and more what he’ll “do”. Keep an eye on the headlines tomorrow morn- one man may have been pushed over the edge.
While I get that a Conservative might not think that a lot of what you do is a “real job”, one would think that at least writing for The Sun would qualify…
I’ll take “simian grunt” for 500……
Warren, you should have told him that you once had a real job, but you had to give it up when his pals told you to go back where you came from.
Get a real job. Become the CFO of your daddy’s company. No post secondary education required. Cuz we don’t go for no book learnin.
