superclerk
The former Mr. Scrooge is ascending to the role of Head Clerk (that's "clark") next Christmas. It occurred to me, as I read that bit of news, that it's a shame he's employed by Mr. Fezziwig and not by the Duke of Kent (whose waltz is part of the Fezzi repertoire), because then, whenever they dance that waltz, they could call it the Clerk of Kent's Waltz, and Bangers & Mash could play a 6/8 version of the love theme from Superman, and then I could snicker to myself.
And that's really what life is all about, isn't it?
