Ah, yes, Ebbie...but there is mere common vocabulary...and then there is VOCABULARY, the language of the intelligentsia! A person of great intellect can immediately detect the difference. Bobert, for example, uses (cough!) vocabulary of, well, the most primitive sort....

But Don Firth and Amos use VOCABULARY!!!!!!

Then there are those who can seamlessly move from mere vulgar and common vocabulary into the true heights of VOCABULARY and back again in the wink of an eye! To do that enables one to comfortably exist, like an amphibian, in both worlds. It's a useful survival tactic. Johnny Depp is a good example of someone who can do that with consummate ease, and that's why he gets such good roles in the movies.

I aspire to being more like Johnny Depp. Who knows, I might still get to date Winona Ryder one of these days... ;-)
