#2  (When M came to this [headline] he grunted and pressed a switch on the intercom.

'Head of S?'
'Sir.'
'What the hell does this word mean?' He spelt it out.
'Pimping, sir.'
'This is not the Berlitz School of Languages, Head of S. If you want to show off your knowledge of foreign jawbreakers, be good enough to provide a crib. Better still, write in English.'
'Sorry, sir.'

M released the switch and turned back to the memorandum.)

Yeah... The final training I had in writing was the famous P&G One Page Memo, which needs as much discipline as structured verse without permitting any linguistic creativity whatsoever. It was humbling, which I suppose was a good thing at that stage of my development.

#4 No criticism intended. Giddy at recognizing the word from yesterday's first-ever reading of Ca5ino Royale, I couldn't resist sharing. And promptly realized that most Burgers will've read it decades ago.

#8  And promptly realized that most Burgers will've read it decades ago.

It was new to me, Spiting Uninese6703, and delightful. And triggered my own memory of being on the receiving end of a similar exchange.

I did see the 2006 version, but as is usual for me I have no memory of the details... and I never read the book. So for me it had the charm of novelty as well But this is a crowd that appreciates such references, though they remember details with terrifying accuracy. Carry on, please. :-)
