I find this a bit difficult to believe. Not the word itself, but the origin given for it.

I have this great old pencil sharper down on the workbench down stairs in my shed that with just 2 turns of the handle does the trick. ;-)

Cheers.

But you haven't always led.

Some difficulties with the written language...
on insurance claims...

1. The pedestrian had no idea which way to run, so I ran over him.

2. I had been driving for 40 years when I fell asleep at the wheel and had an accident.

3. The guy was all over the road, I had to swerve several times before I hit him.

4. My foot jumped from the brake to the accelerator pedal, leapt across the road to the other side and jumped into the trunk of a tree.

5. I bumped into a shop window and sustained injuries to my wife.

6. A car drove away at speed catching our client who went up in the air and his head went through the windscreen and then rolled off at the traffic lights. The car then sped off and miraculously our client crossed the road.

7. The car in front hit the pedestrian but he got up so I hit him again.

8. I pulled into a lay-by with smoke coming from under the bonnet. I realised the car was on fire so took my dog and smothered it with a blanket.

9. I am responsible for the accident as I was miles away at the time.

10. I thought the side window was down but it was up, so I put my head through it.


And some interesting/unfortunately phrased ones...

1. Windscreen broken. Cause unknown. Probably Voodoo.

2. In an attempt to kill a fly, I drove into a telephone pole.

3. If the other driver had stopped a few yards behind himself the accident would not have happened.

4. She suddenly saw me, lost her head and we met.

5. Three women were talking to each other and when two stepped back and one stepped forward I had to have an accident.

6. Coming home I drove into the wrong house and collided with a tree I haven't got.

7. I knocked over a man. He admitted it was his fault as he had been run over before.

8. I pulled away from the side of the road, glanced at my mother-in-law and headed over the embankment.

I had the interesting experience of lodging in a youth hostel in Paris for a week. The lady running the place put all the "English" speakers in one. Me with my West Texas drawl, A pair from Brooklyn, a pair from the deep south, a pair from someplace in Australia, a pair from Scotland someplace, and one old man with what I believe was a deep cockney accent. Although we spoke the same language, the conversation was almost mutually unintelligible.
