Dutch cricket international found dead

I think she shows great mental agility being able pull together bit and pieces of obscure news and come up with a juicy morsel for her Smiff obsession to fed on.

And then make obtuse references that somehow evolve into a derisory comment about Smiff.
Hmmmmmm ...

I wonder if you really meant obscure but followed in the fine tradition of malapropian madness.

I hear Smith has been sighted on the grassy knoll.

You certainly have a point Mrs V.

No.
I originally typed obscure - but then realized that would be paying you an unnecessary compliment.

I specifically chose obtuse because I believed you to be mentally slow.
However, having appreciated Mrs. V's reference to your "mental agility", I stand corrected.

Nevertheless, this has nothing whatsoever to do with either Mal nor his Props nor his Isms.

So who did cause the holocaust, the Austrian with the comedy moustache or - dum dum dum *narrows eyes, breathes in, dramatic pause* - Graeme Smith?

Smith. Look, there he is, behind you. Look behind you.

I think Red's Van der Bra may be slipping.

Surely his missing ball made him more remarkable than his comedy moustache.

He wasn't remarkable, Himler had something similar.

Himler had something similar....

But poor old Goebals ......................
Was very much like Bell.

It is believed that the last time a sentence starting with 'it is believed' was posted on an internet forum (and was actually believed by anybody with a double figure or better IQ) and was found to be fact, was sometime in the late spring of 1946.

Apparentlly 'it is believed' is nothing more than a long-winded version of 'apparently' (see glos).

Do I be a boring pedant and say that there was no such thing as an internet forum in 1946?

Farq it, I will!

They probably used morse code.
