Loved the comedy video of Alastair Beckett-King! I knew the archaic meaning of that old word but not its current slang meaning. and I also love the video showing TABBY's artistry -- satirizing Banksy using Banksy's style! Good one.

I wondered how Banksy et al got such sharp edges with spray cans and a stencil on brick/stucco. He actually holds the edge in place with his hand.

In /Pushing Daisies/ an orphan girl has been raised by her two odd aunts, collectors if not connoisseurs of cheese. Their word for refrigerator is /cheese closet/, so that's what the girl grows up calling it, and that's what I call it now. The cheese closet. It would be a good name for a restaurant.
