arctic sangfroid

My best friend, Ms Rational Self-Determinism (a psychotherapist) said to her older kid, about one of her patients, that "he's a bit bipolar."

He said, alarmed: "He was bit by a polar bear?!?"

I've been accused of bipolar, but got the last laugh a few years ago when officially declared personality disordered by state forensic, and they'd know.

Robert!

Bit by a polar bear. Probably - or hopefully - in the nether regions.

That would explain everything.

I've given up my idea of hosing down "performance" poets. A waste of water. I'm putting a match to them instead.

Now, children. Jane, I expect you're a bit demob-happy after your gruelling Ancient Greek experience...

Well if I ever have a sex change I'll know where to send the parts left over.
