Actually Marx was right here and any meaningful work can only be done by those who labour. The rest of us freeload upon their backs and then look down upon them.
You think the president of a company, behind a desk, doesn't do anything? You are the absolute definition of a fool!

Not what I said boob but it'll have to wait until you say what the "meaningful" describes in your "meaningful work"?

Meaningful work is work that has a free-market value.

Fair enough, so yours and Johns works are meaningless?

Well, John's work made millions of dollars for others, and so will "The Ouzo Prophecy."

You're too stupid to understand anything, even the stultification of emoticons.

Besides your incessant emoticons, you keep asking the same dumb and impertinent questions that you have the utter audacity expecting an answer.

As if I'd expect you to answer anything with a question mark boob. It's yet another disability to add to your long list but there appears to be no name for it.

I like the way my questions and your non-answers reflect upon your thoughts about certain matters.

Any nearer answering the one about this 'divinity' that inspired you?

Suggest you check the OED.

I suggest that instead of dodging the question you answer it.

Still, I'll help you, do you mean you are like a 'god' or that there is a 'god' that inspired you or that you are just very pleasing or delightful?

You are familiar with the OED, aren't you?

Yup, just got it down from my shelf and these are the interpretations of "divine", "divinity" is the state of being divine so which one applies to you?

I'm sorry, but I've lost all confidence in the great OED:

Subject: Nicolaitanes
The 1604 edition of the KJV spelled the word as "Nicolaitans." I believe the earliest Oxford dictionary spelled it "Nicolaitanes." Can you confirm? Thanks, Bob Evenson

The OED shows the spelling as Nicolaitans. Please let us know if we may be of further assistance
