I had occasion last year to communicate from New England to Merrie Olde, specifically to Royal Doulton, looking for some Winnie-the-Pooh favo(u)rs for a 90th birthday party (merely corroborative detail, intended to lend etc). They were quite accommodating in their reply, sent along a catalog of what was available, and prices, and indicated that my "local stockist should be able to assist further."

The meaning is clear, but I hadn't come across that particular usage before.

Dear WO'N: Your coinage would be banned in Boston. Why not be content
with "fellatist"?

Should we retitle this thread "Blazing Saddles"? (Actually, they made the scene a bit too long, by a good half, and it lost its humor in the end. We would never make that mistake.)

Not at all, WW - it has a smug smile on its face, delighted at being self-propelled.
