My fault. I confused propinquity with propensity. (I do that a lot.)
According to the American College Dictionary, "propensity 1. natural
or habitual inclination or tendency: a propensity to find fault."
So...old men may well have a propensity toward procrastination and
sloth just as BULLMANKA PINHEADS may well have a propensity to find
fault.
"Propinquity" on the other hand is indeed "1. nearness in place; proximity."
Therefore, for the record, Jerry Lewis stated, ""Nine apathetic,
sympathetic, diabetic old men on roller skates with a marked
propensity toward procrastination and sloth." Just after, "Eight
brass monkeys from the ancient sacred crypts of Egypt." etc. etc.
