Thanks, sir! Don’t know why I want to remake A. J. Wright into A. J. Jacobs, but when I half-asleep I will…Sergio Angelini would occasionally find himself commissioning Morricone scores and teaching Eastwood by example, at least as I would credit him. I’m surprised I haven’t decided you were Donne, when I should’ve been.

A three-groan pun, Holmes.
I’ll grant you that, Watson…
And finally had the wit to add your review of THE A26 to the mix. Sorry for not doing the obviously valuable before.
Oh! Many thanks. I didn’t realize it would qualify . . .
